Researchers have discovered that when they re-established a population of new cells in the part of the brain associated with behavior, some symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease significantly decreased or were reversed altogether. While memory loss is a common symptom of Alzheimer’s, other behavioral manifestations — depression, loss of inhibition, delusions, agitation, anxiety, and aggression — can be even more challenging for victims and their families to live with. The research was conducted on mouse models; it provides a promising target for Alzheimer’s symptoms in human beings as well.
