Cellular Therapy & Alzheimer’s

Host: Cathy Wyatt Guest: Howard Gendelman, M.D. Pharmacology & Experimental Neuroscience, UNMC To date, no medications or lifestyle changes have been shown to reverse the most common form of dementia…until now. Coming up on the next edition of “Consider This…” Cellular Therapy & Alzheimer’s. A research team from UNMC has proven it protected damaged brain cells and restored brain homeostasis in a mouse model. The treatment also improved learning and memory in these animals. What could that mean for humans? Answers from the Chair of the Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Neuroscience at UNMC.
