New research on mice suggests vitamin D and transporter proteins found at the blood-brain barrier may help prevent amyloid beta peptide buildup in the brain — reducing the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
Experts say that advancing age is a major risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) with AD associated with build-up of the peptide amyloid beta in the brain.The research published in BioMed Central’s open access journal Fluids and Barriers of the CNS shows that removal of amyloid beta from the brain depends on vitamin D and also on an age-related alteration in the production of transporter proteins which move amyloid beta in and out of the brain.
