Model: Ten-month-old male EFAD mice 
Dosage: 14.4 ppm of alfatradiol in diet for five months

USC Study: Longevity-Promoting Drug Counteracts a Genetic Predisposition to Alzheimer's

The drug alfatradiol, also known as 17ɑ-estradiol, reduces cognitive errors on a test of memory and lowers neuronal plaques in mice genetically predisposed to Alzheimer’s disease.

(The University of Southern California | College Matchpoint)

Researchers unveil data suggesting the drug alfatradiol improves signs of frailty, reduces cognitive errors, and reduces neuronal plaques in mice with a genetic predisposition to Alzheimer’s disease.

Model: UM-HET3 mice and 5XFAD mice 
Dosage: UM=HET3 mice received 180 mg/kg canagliflozin in chow starting at seven months of age, and FXFAD mice received 180 mg/kg canagliflozin in chow beginning at three months of age

New Study: Diabetes Medication Improves Cognition and Alleviates Alzheimer’s Progression

The diabetes drug canagliflozin improves learning and memory in middle-aged male mice and reduces brain plaques in Alzheimer’s model mice.

The FDA-approved diabetes medication canagliflozin improves cognition in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease in males only.
