• Investigation into the so-called Alzheimers gene ApoE4 (those who carry two copies of this variant have roughly eight to 10 times the risk of getting Alzheimers disease) has found that ApoE4 causes an increase in cyclophilin A, which in turn causes a breakdown of the cells lining the blood vessels


• Professor Murali Doraiswamy, of Duke University in North Carolina, said there was evidence that people who eat a curry meal two or three times a week have a lower risk of dementia


• Note also that this gene variant is not only associated with Alzheimers risk, but also Downs syndrome dementia, poor outcome following TBI, and age-related cognitive decline
