@Saltykid41 Fascinating as well as this dude from UofT claims to have discovered this new fact he neglects to mention the Spanish team that found this in 2018. Who knew scientists would lie about their discoveries.

What people are saying
Overall, the discussions emphasize the significance of microbial presence in AD brains, referencing specific fungi like Malassezia and mentioning prior findings from 2018, which indicates active interest. Words like 'fascinating' and references to 'targeted antimicrobial therapy' suggest curiosity and recognition of possible impacts, though some comments also highlight skepticism or the need for further validation.
Most discussions support the research findings, especially highlighting evidence of fungal and bacterial presence in AD brain tissue.
The discussions show high curiosity, with commenters referencing specific microbial suspects and previous studies, indicating strong engagement with the topic.
Posts reflect a moderate level of engagement, with some users critically evaluating the findings and mentioning ongoing debates or gaps in the research.
The discussions suggest potential implications for future treatments and understanding of Alzheimer’s, but overall seem exploratory rather than definitive.
Abstract in brief
- The study explores the presence of fungal and bacterial infections in the brain tissue of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients compared to controls, suggesting that polymicrobial infections may play a role in AD's etiology.
- Researchers found specific fungal genera, such as those more prevalent in AD patients, and bacterial phyla like Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, which differed between AD and control brains, indicating distinct microbial patterns.
- These findings point to potential targeted antimicrobial treatments for AD and highlight the importance of understanding individual microbial profiles to better understand disease progression and symptoms.]

@topologic_apple @mike_lustgarten The lipophilic fungi Malassezia are the prime suspects. In AD brains: 9/10 AD vs. 2/9 controls (OR=32, 95% CI 2.3 to 420, p=0.0055). See Figure 3 & 5 here: https://t.co/ksUZsvdeBC

"could be of interest to guide targeted antimicrobial therapy for AD patients. Moreover, the variety of microbial species in each patient may constitute a basis for a better understanding of the evolution and severity of clinical symptoms in each patient." https://t.co/WAJdV0gJxY https://t.co/CCMatNUVvd

Extensive evidence demonstrates that brain tissue from Alzheimer’s Disease patients is infected by several fungal species. Indeed, yeast and hyphal structures can be directly observed in the neural tissue... https://t.co/U4LyECQj4g https://t.co/hjR64uGxp6
