Do the Biogen Diranersen Phase 2 (Celia study) results provide counter-evidence to my Dual Sequestration Hypothesis?

DSH vs. Biogen Diranersen Phase 2 (Celia study) โ€” Compatibility Assessment Bottom line: The Celia results do not constitute counter-evidence to DSH. They’re compatible with its core claim about therapeutic ceilings, but nothing in the trial tests DSH’s actual falsifiable content (nanoplastic nucleation, glymphatic obstruction, NLRP3/pyroptosis, NP-tangle colocalization). Log this as consistent-with, not confirmatory-of. 1. […]

Resistance Training and Neuroplasticity

Recent research (Vints et al., 2024, GeroScience) offers critical insights into the biological underpinnings of how resistance training influences the aging brain. By utilizing a randomized controlled trial design, the study examined 70 older adults (aged 60โ€“85) stratified by MCI risk via MoCA scores, shedding light on the structural and neurochemical shifts induced by a […]

The Minority View of Aฮฒ in Alzheimer’s Disease is gaining ground on the Established View

We propose the DSH as a unifying framework to resolve these converging crises. This clinicopathological update posits that sporadic AD, particularly in its modern manifestation, could be understood as a disease of maladaptive innate immunity. The DSH suggests reframing Aฮฒ and tau pathologies not as intrinsic pathogens but as visible remnants of overwhelmed, evolutionarily conserved […]

The Hidden Gatekeeper: A Serial Killer Inside the Human Brain

The Hidden Gatekeeperย Best for an engaging, true-crime-style narrative that builds suspense paragraph by paragraph. For over thirty years, neurologists have been tracking a serial killer inside the human brain. We call its wake Alzheimerโ€™s disease. When scientists look at the brains of those affected, they always find the same gruesome crime scene: millions of vital […]

The choroid plexus (ChP): hydrodynamic bottleneck and ground zero for Alzheimer’s

The choroid plexus (ChP): hydrodynamic bottleneck and ground zero for Alzheimer’s diseaseย  https://ejournals.uni-muenster.de/fnp/article/view/9368/9664 The Institute has advanced a Dual Sequestration Hypothesis (DSH) related to the protein signatures prevalent in Alzheimer’s disease.ย  If the DSH is correct, the ChP should enlarge and become the sentinel hydrodynamic bottleneck as synthetic particles and their protein sequestrants accumulate. This […]
