  • Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) directly affect the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells and are integral to bone tissue development. BMP9, a

The article from AlphaGalileo discusses a study by researchers at the University of California, San Diego, which explores the relationship between the gut microbiome and the development of Alzheimer's disease. The study, published in the journal *Nature Aging*, found that individuals with Alzheimer's disease have distinct microbial signatures in their gut compared to healthy individuals. Specifically, there is a noted decrease in bacterial diversity and an increase in pro-inflammatory bacteria in those with Alzheimer's. The research suggests that these microbial changes could contribute to the disease's pathology by influencing inflammation and immune responses. The findings propose that targeting the gut microbiome might offer new therapeutic strategies for managing or potentially preventing Alzheimer's disease, highlighting the importance of the gut-brain axis in neurodegenerative conditions.
