Scientists may have finally found how Alzheimer's kills brain cells

According to ScienceDaily, researchers have identified a previously overlooked mechanism responsible for brain cell death in Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. The discovery reveals how neurons are destroyed in these conditions and could unlock new therapeutic approaches—ones designed to halt the cell death process before irreversible damage occurs. This breakthrough offers hope for slowing neurodegeneration in patients facing these progressive brain disorders.
