Articles
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:25Improving memory in AD mice
Novel drug candidate J147 is able to arrest and reverse memory deficits and improve several aspects of brain function in aged mice with advanced symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:18Diagnosing AD before autopsy
Clark and Kodadek review the current progress to identify Alzheimer's disease (AD)-specific blood-based protein biomarkers, which would allow for an economical, rapid and non-invasive diagnostic test for the disease.
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:17Non-transgenic rat models and AD
Lecanu and Papadopoulos discuss pharmacologically induced rat models of sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD) and their potential benefits for drug development over transgenic alternatives.
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:21Targeting norepinephrine
Treatments that increase norepinephrine transmission and may have the potential to delay or reverse Alzheimer's disease-related pathology are discussed by Levey and colleagues, who review the evidence for noradrenergic-based therapies.
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:155-HT6 receptors and AD
María Javier Ramírez reviews evidence supporting the cognitive effects of 5-HT6 receptor compounds, resulting in 5-HT6-targeted compounds being regarded as powerful therapeutic candidates in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:20Neuroprotective effects of D-Ala2GIP
A new long-lasting analogue of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) has neuroprotective properties including rescuing cognitive performance and reducing Abeta plaque load and neuroinflammation in an animal model of Alzheimer's disease.
-
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy 2013, 5:19Novel GSM shows promise for AD
A novel gamma-secretase modulator (GSM) and promising new therapy in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is orally bioavailable, brain penetrant, and effective at lowering Abeta42 in a dose responsive manner in multiple rodent models.

Aims & scope
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy is the major forum for translational research into Alzheimer's disease. An international peer-reviewed journal, it publishes open access basic research with a translational focus, as well as clinical trials, research into drug discovery and development, and epidemiologic studies. The journal also provides reviews, viewpoints, commentaries, debates and reports. Although the primary focus is Alzheimer's dementia, the scope encompasses translational research into other neurodegenerative diseases.
Latest issue
The complete issue of Alzheimer's Research & Therapy Volume 5 Issue 2 is now available.
Latest free review
The following review has recently become free to access:
