A new study found that a common HIV treatment, RT inhibitors, was associated with a statistically significant reduced incidence and prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease. The study revealed for the first time how the Alzheimer’s-linked gene, APP, is recombined using the same type of enzyme found in HIV.
