The exposure to toxic gases released in the air was associated with a worse appearance in people with Alzheimer's disease, accelerating the accumulation of toxic proteins in the brain and worsening the cognitive decline, according to a new study. It was found that those who lived in areas with higher concentrations of particles end in the air, even for one year, had a more severe accumulation of amyloids and emarmised tau — characteristics of Al…
Air pollution shown to worsen Alzheimer’s disease
Living in areas with poor air quality could make Alzheimer’s disease progress faster, according to new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The study is the first to link air pollution directly with the buildup of amyloid plaques and tau tangles the toxic proteins that define Alzheimer’s disease using post-mortem brain tissue. Both plaques and tangles are considered hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. Wh…
