Adjuvants & Alzheimer’s: A Shot at Prevention 💥🧬🧠
Manage episode 491463515 series 2740117
🧠💉 Can vaccines protect the mind? New research suggests that AS01-adjuvanted vaccines like Shingrix and Arexvy may reduce the risk of dementia—possibly by stimulating immune pathways like IFN-γ and TLR4, not just by preventing infection.
📊 In a large US-based EHR study, those who received the RSV or shingles vaccine had a significantly lower 18-month dementia risk than flu-vaccinated peers.
🔬 The common thread? The AS01 adjuvant.
🛡️ Could this be a new frontier in neuroprotection? Let’s discuss. #Vaccines #Dementia #RSV #AS01 #Neuroimmunology #PublicHealth #Alzheimers #PrecisionMedicine
