text (678): 🚨SCIENTISTS UNCOVER BRAIN’S HIDDEN PLUMBING SYSTEM — AND IT RESTORES MEMORY

Researchers at Washington University have found a breakthrough: aging brains struggle to clear waste, fueling memory loss and Alzheimer’s.

But boosting the brain’s waste-draining lymphatic vessels in older mice restored memory and reduced inflammation.

Jonathan Kipnis, Professor of Pathology:

"Targeting these vessels outside the brain opens powerful new possibilities to prevent or delay cognitive decline."

By enhancing this overlooked system, scientists hope to preserve brain function and tackle age-related disorders without breaching the brain’s protective barrier.

A study published in Science by researchers at the University of Basel reveals that memories are stored in multiple parallel copies within the brain, each varying in duration and flexibility.

These copies, stored in different groups of hippocampal neurons, can change over time, with some being easily modified shortly after formation and others becoming more stable but less changeable.

This dynamic memory storage allows the brain to adapt to new situations while retaining past experiences.
