New insights into brain aging and Alzheimer's from non-human primates

· News-Medical

"These observations show that human brain aging differs from brain aging in non-human primates, and humans constitute the exception among primates in terms of severity and extent of brain aging damage."

In conclusion, this review not only improves our understanding of why humans are uniquely vulnerable to Alzheimer's disease but also opens new avenues for exploring innovative strategies to combat aging-related brain damage in humans.
