An SSRI can cut amyloid plaque growth by 78%, according to a recent paper in Science Translational Medicine. Because the plaque reduction is near-immediate, whereas the anti-depressive effects of the SSRI take weeks to kick in, the research team is sure a different pathway (other than the serotonin pathway) is involved. Guesses as to which one (s)?
