Scientists find clue to slowing Alzheimer’s symptoms — but research is caught up in Trump funding delays

An experimental treatment appears to delay Alzheimer’s symptoms in some people genetically destined to get the disease in their 40s or 50s .

The early results — a scientific first — were published Wednesday even as study participants worried that politics could cut their access to a possible lifeline.

The research involves families that pass down rare gene mutations almost guaranteeing they’ll develop symptoms at the same age their affected relatives.

Families with Alzheimer’s-causing genes are helping answer a critical question for anyone at risk.

Can blocking amyloid buildup really stave off symptoms? Without NIH funding, Bateman says, that opportunity will be lost.

“We need the NIH to be not politicized,” said one study participant.
