There are treatments for Alzheimers that slow down the progression if caught early. I was reading an article that scientist are now linking the herpes virus to Alzheimer's.

It is amazing that the fish are able to combat the degenerative disease at such a fast rate, and it seems that if humans were only able to grasp what it was that helps the fish have these regenerating properties, we would be that much closer to better treatment for Alzheimer's.Minnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05274727282637053265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360356351594869925.post-3522663414977312572019-04-24T23:37:03.068-04:002019-04-24T23:37:03.068-04:00It seems like there's still a lot of work ahea...It seems like there's still a lot of work ahead of these researchers in figuring out how to regenerate human brain cells but at least they are starting somewhere. It's hard to imagine how studying zebra-fish and their regeneration can assist with humans but if it ends up shedding light on more treatments or better treatments for Alzheimer's then I'm all for it. Luckily, Alzheimer's doesn't run in my family, at least not that I know of, but I have seen other people go through the struggle of watching loved ones suffer with it.
