New Delhi, April 06 (ANI): According to a recent study, the drowsiness that many Alzheimer's patients experience are caused not by a lack of sleep, but rather by the degeneration of a type of neuron that keeps us awake. It also confirmed that the Tau protein is behind that neurodegeneration.The findings of the study were published in the journal, 'JAMA Neurology'.The study has found the common notion that Alzheimer's patients sleep during the day to make up for a bad night of sleep and points toward potential therapies to help these patients feel more awake.The data came from study participants who were patients at UC San Francisco's Memory and Aging Center and volunteered to have their sleep monitored with an electroencephalogram (EEG) and donate their brains after they died.
