Alzheimer’s Drug Unlocks Brain’s Cleanup Crew

Scientists just figured out how the Alzheimer’s drug Lecanemab actually works—and it’s wild. Turns out, it doesn’t just stick to those nasty amyloid plaques in the brain. It flips a switch in the brain’s immune cells (microglia), basically waking them up to gobble up the toxic stuff. Even cooler: it does this without wrecking healthy brain connections. This could be a game-changer for future treatments! #Health #BodyHealth #Alzheimers
