Voluntary running does not increase capillary blood flow but promotes neurogenesis and short-term memory in the APP/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimers disease

This study shows that voluntary running improves memory and neurogenesis in Alzheimer's mouse models but does not increase cerebral blood flow or reduce amyloid-beta deposits.

High fat diet worsens pathology and impairment in an Alzheimers mouse model, but not by synergistically decreasing cerebral blood flow

The paper shows that a high fat diet worsens Alzheimer's disease symptoms in mice but does not synergistically reduce cerebral blood flow, suggesting capillary stalling is not the mechanism linking diet and disease severity.
