Heart medications may help treat Alzheimer's disease by reducing plaque buildup in the brain's blood vesselsBy: Emily Lunardo Alzheimers | Thursday, November 10, 2016 - 12:30 PMHeart medications may help treat Alzheimer's disease by reducing plaque buildup in the brain's blood vessels.Researcher Prof. Magnus Grenegård explained, "You should be careful not to draw any major conclusions from experimental studies, but we have certainly identified an interesting approach worth taking further."The study revealed how the protein beta-amyloid sticks to the surface of blood platelets, initiating a chain reaction of rapid plaque buildup."Plaque causes nerve cells to die at too fast a rate, causing the symptoms indicative of Alzheimer's disease, such as memory loss.Our study is an example of solid biomedical basic research at the cell and molecular levels which points to a link that was previously unknown.
