New research by Kristin Guilliams, MD, and colleagues, published in Brain Research Bulletin, suggests that hydroxyurea — a prescription drug that helps red blood cells maintain their round shape — may support brain development in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA).

The study found that children with SCA had smaller brain volumes than healthy controls, but earlier and longer hydroxyurea use was linked to better gray matter and total brain volume.

Early treatment may matter.

A study from Cyril Pottier, PhD, and Maulikkumar Patel, PhD, identified three new genetic modifiers that may help explain why Alzheimer’s disease develops differently in people with inherited mutations.

These findings could help advance genetic counseling, clinical trial design and future treatment strategies for Alzheimer’s disease.
