Alzheimer's disease may damage brain in 2 phases
Alzheimer's Disease Harms The Brain in 2 Distinct Phases, Study Reveals
An analysis of the genetic activity of brain cells in individuals who have died with Alzheimer's disease has revealed the condition progresses in two stages; a slow increase in inflammation, followed by a more rapid degeneration.
Silent Damage First: Alzheimer's Disease Could Have Two Phases
Once the stage has been set, the second phase of Alzheimer’s ensues. People begin to develop overt memory and cognitive problems, and the damaging hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease rapidly accumulate – amyloid beta plaques and tau tangles among them.
Alzheimer’s disease damages the brain in a two-phase process, study finds
Alzheimer’s disease may damage the brain in two phases, according to new research published in Nature Neuroscience on Monday.

Alzheimer's disease may damage the brain in two phases
Alzheimer's disease may damage the brain in two distinct phases, based on new research using sophisticated brain mapping tools. According to researchers who discovered this new view, the first, early phase happens slowly and silently -- before people experience memory problems -- harming just a few vulnerable cell types.
Study explores how traumatic brain injury may be linked to Alzheimer's disease
Each year, about 2.5 million people suffer from traumatic brain injuries (TBI), which often increases their risk of developing Alzheimer's disease later in life.
Alzheimer's: Hidden 'Early' Brain Damage Phase Revealed by Neuroscientists
"The results fundamentally alter scientists' understanding of how Alzheimer's harms the brain," researchers say.
Alzheimer's may cause much of its brain damage before symptoms appear
New research suggests the disease occurs in two phases, including one in which changes happen gradually – and 'quietly.'
