Researchers have discovered a new way to combat Alzheimer's disease. They found that treatment with dopamine could reduce characteristic harmful beta-amyloid plaques in the brain as well as improve memory. The treatments works because dopamine promotes the production of neprilysin, an enzyme that can break down the harmful plaques. If similar results are found in human clinical trials, it could lead to a fundamentally new way to treat the disease.
