Scientists believe they have discovered how a common disease called shingles can increase a person's risk of stroke. The research reveals how viral infections can be reawakened after lying dormant for years and cause health issues beyond acute disease.
A new study is presenting evidence suggesting viral infections in the olfactory system can accelerate the progression of Alzheimer's disease. The research looked at the relationship between markers of infections and neurodegeneration in the hippocampus.
According to a recent study, viruses can inflame and damage connections between the olfactory system, which regulates the sense of smell, and the portion of the brain connected with memory and learning, potentially hastening the onset of Alzheimer's disease
Viruses can inflame and disrupt connections between the olfactory system, which governs the sense of smell, and the part of the brain associated with memory and learning, possibly accelerating the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new study from researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.
Alzheimer's disease onset may be accelerated by viruses that inflame and disrupt signals from the olfactory system to the hippocampus, a new study reports.
