一项持续23年的研究发现,那些在幼儿期就食用富含铅食物的猴子,年老后其大脑中一种名为Tau的蛋白质出现了异常缠绕的情况,而Tau与阿尔兹海默症有关。尽管神经学家说还需要更多的研究来支持这一结论,但是研究人员们还是认为暴露的铅,比如,美国人常用的未经过铅水平限制的油漆、汽车、水和土壤等,会增加孩子们年老后患阿兹海默症的风险。
A 23-year study found that those who consumed lead-enriched monkeys during early childhood developed an abnormally entangled version of a protein called Tau in their brains after they aged, while Tau and Alzheimer’s disease related. Although neuroscientists say that more research is needed to support this conclusion, researchers believe exposure to lead, such as paint, cars, water and soil, which Americans commonly use without lead limits, will increase Children are at risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease when they are old.
