New research reveals that Alzheimer's disease may impair nerve function not by reducing myelin, but by altering the proteins ...
The disruption of axons—the thread-like part of nerve cells that transmits electrical signals—is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. One way axonal function may be hindered is through damage to the ...
