Incredibly promising news to start the new year…
“The key takeaway is a message of hope—the effects of Alzheimer's disease may not be inevitably permanent,” Pieper said. “The damaged brain can, under some conditions, repair itself and regain function.” “Through our study, we demonstrated one drug-based way to accomplish this in animal models, and also identified candidate proteins in the human AD brain that may relate to the ability to reverse AD,” Chaubey said.

Toby Morton, a 'South Park' alum, bought www.trumpkennedycenter.org months ago on a hunch that the ridiculously vain Donald Trump would rename the Center. Donald’s stupidity is only exceeded by his predictability.

In preclinical models, treatment repaired brain pathology, restored cognitive function, and normalized Alzheimer’s biomarkers (in HUMAN models as well).
• case.edu/news/new-stu...

The study has been published in Cell. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED.
• www.cell.com/cell-reports...

🧪🧵⬇️
Highlights •Severity of Alzheimer's disease (AD) correlates with NAD+ homeostasis dysregulation •Preserving brain NAD+ homeostasis prevents AD in mice • Restoring brain NAD+ homeostasis reverses advanced AD in mice • Multiomics across human and mouse AD brain identifies nodes for human AD reversal Summary Alzheimer's has long been considered irreversible, but new research challenges that assumption. Scientists discovered that severe drops in the brain's energy supply help drive the disease-and restoring that balance can reverse damage, even in advanced cases. In mouse models, treatment repaired brain pathology, restored cognitive function, and normalized Alzheimer's biomarkers. The results offer fresh hope that recovery may be possible. Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is traditionally considered irreversible. Here, however, we provide proof of principle for therapeutic reversibility of advanced AD. In advanced disease amyloid-driven 5xFAD mice, treatment with P7C3-A20, which restores nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) homeostasis, reverses tau phosphorylation, blood-brain barrier deterioration, oxidative stress, DNA damage, and neuroinflammation and enhances hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity, resulting in full cognitive recovery and reduction of plasma levels of the clinical AD biomarker p-tau217. P7C3-A20 also reverses advanced disease in tau-driven PS19 mice and protects human brain microvascular endothelial cells from oxidative stress. In humans and mice, pathology severity correlates with disruption of brain NAD+ homeostasis, and the brains of nondemented people with Alzheimer's neuropathology exhibit gene expression patterns suggestive of preserved NAD+ homeostasis. Forty-six proteins aberrantly expressed in advanced 5xFAD mouse brain and normalized by P7C3-A20 show similar alterations in human AD brain, revealing targets with potential for optimizing translation to patient care.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

📌Just heard an interview with John Mellencamp.

Jack, in "Jack and Diane" was written as a black dude. They were an interracial couple. Thing is, the music producers didn't like that back then, so it wasn’t sold that way.
Mellencamp was asked why.

"Because America is racist as hell, that’s why ..."

This year, many people resigned their posts at the slightest hint that the Trump regime was displeased with them instead of staying and making someone fire them.

Sharyn Alfonsi is showing us why you stay and refuse: you make clear your superiors are wrong and may them pay the costs of firing you.
chrisgeidner.bsky.social Chris Geidner @chrisgeidner.bsky.social · 7d
Again, from Michael Grynbaum, here is Sharyn Alfonsi's full email.

It must be read:
News Team, Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier. I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one. We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the story. If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient. If the standard for airing a story becomes "the government must agree to be interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state. These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless. CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones. We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it. When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet. I care too much about this broadcast to watch it be dismantled without a fight. Sharyn

Doing another piece with Miller later is fine, but to add him here after the administration declines to officially have any comment is a suck up gimme. The real word we are looking for here is complicit.

Putting a power parched non journalist — who has zero experience in investigative reporting — in charge of real reporters usually ends like this: ‘60 Minutes’ Pulled a Segment. A Correspondent Calls It ‘Political.’ www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/b...

This is entirely to please Trump, who has voiced criticism of 60 Minutes under the new owners, who are the definition of rank amatuers, emphasis on rank. This Stephen Miller interview suggestion is idiotic in the context of this story and shows a startling lack of sophistication or smarts.

An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

Once I was up for a role in a film & producers said “If we cast a white woman as female lead we can’t cast you; gotta get an actor of color.” They wound up casting a white woman & thus cast a great Black actor in the part I was up for. He killed it. Did I whine about it? No, I got another job or made one up; don’t even remember. World got a movie with a fantastic performance in it & I wound up A-OK. So the thing that 100% didn’t happen to these bigot pussies literally happened to me & the world continued to wipe my white ass. Give these shitheads no quarter. I love affirmative action & DEI even though it can be inelegant or clumsy. So what? It’s the barest of bandaids on centuries of racism both explicit & structural. Racism that I’m not responsible for but that I am very happy to ever-so-barely acknowledge is as real as a hand grenade, because I’m not insane.
