Penn Medicine News: Penn Researchers Reverse Cognitive Decline in Flies With Alzheimer’s Gene Mutation

uphs.upenn.edu — “Investigators have found that fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) males -- in which the activity of an Alzheimer’s disease protein is reduced by 50 percent -- show impairments in learning and memory as they age. What’s more, the researchers were able to prevent the age-related deficits by treating the flies with drugs such as lithium, or by genetic manipulations that reduced nerve-cell signaling.View full resource at uphs.upenn.edu
