Intracellular Signaling Mechanisms that Offer a Path to Treating Vascular Dementia Researchers here report an advance in understanding the biochemistry of pathological interactions between cell types in the context of vascular dementia. After mapping gene expression levels in healthy and diseased vascular tissue, the researchers find a possible basis for therapy in one specific set of altered expression levels observed in microglia and oligodendrocyte. They present initial evidence for restored expression of two genes to reduce vascular dysfunction and pathology. This sort of approach is inherently compensatory, to eliminate a maladaptive reaction without addressing underlying causes. Is likely to be more limited in benefits than addressing those causes, because the causes will continue to produce other harms. Nonetheless, this is the way that the research community usually proceeds. Vascular dementia (VaD) accounts for approximately 25% of […]
