It was long thought that fat in the brain played no role in neurodegenerative diseases, but #Purdue researchers are challenging that assumption. Gaurav Chopra led research on how fat disables the brain’s immune shield in Alzheimer’s disease. purduesci.com/41Jw5SC #chemistry #alzheimers #boilerup

Purdue-led study shows how fat disables the brain’s immune shield in Alzheimer’s disease
Recent research findings challenge the assumption that fat in the brain plays no role in neurodegenerative diseases. The findings show that excess fat in the brain’s resident immune cells impairs thei...
