Dr. MacDonald discusses his research in a well-documented case study at Stony Brook Hospital, which showed spirochetal DNA in the brain tissue of a man who was diagnosed with Lyme and eventually succumbed to Alzheimer's disease, therefore "connecting the link between Lyme disease and Alzheimer's in some patients," he says.
 Developing medicines is like doing a puzzle. You stare at it and gamble. Then you test it and if you are lucky you succeed. We were lucky.  |
Dr. Al-Abed looked at the assembly of amyloids in this toxic form and saw a way to change the molecular machinery so that a substance could drive the amyloid into a new form that does not aggregate to form plaques in the brain. The medicine he has tested is called CNI-1493 and studies in the laboratory have found that that it facilitates the clearance of amyloid (so it doesn’t clump) and it also neutralized the toxicity of the amyloid on its way to becoming a plaque.
Scientists working in the Davies lab at the Feinstein Institute are identifying new risk genes for Alzheimer's. A risk gene is different from the PS1, PS2 and APP mutations in patients with a family history of early-onset disease. These inherited mutations, while rare, cause the disease. Risk genes, by contrast, tip the scales in the direction of disease, but having a risk gene does not mean a person will develop Alzheimer's.
