Source: Science DailyScientists have identified a possible tipping point that helps determine whether Alzheimer's-related brain changes lead to dementia. The key may lie in how the brain's immune cells respond to plaques and tau, offering a promising new target for treatments designed to extend cognitive resilience. The research, published in Nature Medicine, was conducted by using donated brain tissue from older adults with and without cognitive decline.
