Dropping acidity raised as an overlooked culprit in Alzheimer’s disease
Much research into Alzheimer’s focuses on the buildup of brain plaques as a primary cause, but the case is far from closed, particularly in the eyes of a research team at New York University. In newly published research, the scientists detail how declining acidity in cellular cleaning organelles called lysosomes acts as even earlier evidence of the disease’s onset, and they’ve shown how restoring proper acid levels could save neurons from irreversible damage.
