American researchers have discovered a new way to combat the aging of the human brain. This important discovery will help deal with deadly diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease.
The experiment was conducted by neuroscientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA). They found a way to block the development of dangerous neurodegenerative diseases.
Experts have discovered an enzyme responsible for the restoration of DNA in neurons. Its content in cells decreases with age.
The results of the study were published by the journal Nature Communications. To stop the degradation of the brain, you need to use drugs that restore the activity of a useful enzyme, experts emphasized.
This will help improve the condition of patients with Alzheimer’s disease and other senile cognitive impairment. Now scientists are working on the creation of such drugs that would improve brain function and have no negative side effects.
