A research team at the University of Cologne has made a significant breakthrough in understanding the role of the tau protein ...

Human stem cells reveal new insights into Alzheimer's, unlocking potential breakthroughs in understanding and treating the ...

Researchers at the University of Cologne reveal how the 1N4R tau isoform contributes to Alzheimer’s, paving the way for ...

A recent study by the University of Cologne has illuminated a specific tau protein's role in the progression of Alzheimer's ...

Oligomers of Aβ, tau, and ɑ-synuclein may be to blame ... Kedia and Emre Fertan used an antibody targeting the presynaptic protein neurexin 1 to secure synaptosomes to coated slides. Along with an ...

Past studies found that patients diagnosed with AD, as well as some other neurodegenerative disorders, exhibit an abnormal accumulation of tau protein in their neurons. Tau protein is a ...

Rather than looking for amyloid-beta plaques like many other Alzheimer's tests, this one hunts for tiny clumps of tau protein, which are more often associated with cognitive decline. The ...

Tau is a protein that builds up and moves between nerve cells in the brains of people living with Alzheimer’s disease, causing damage. Professor Mudher is using clever genetic manipulation in fruit ...

They consist of aggregates of abnormally phosphorylated tau proteins that are altered in conformation. Conformational changes in tau proteins are thought to be the earliest neurobiological changes ...

The study was focused on analyzing tau, a protein in the brain that plays a key role in Alzheimer's. In people with the neurological disease, tau proteins undergo chemical changes, forming tangled ...

The variant causes a person's brain to accumulate beta amyloid and phosphorylated tau proteins, the hallmarks of Alzheimer's. When Whitney turned 60 and still had no symptoms, he assumed he didn't ...
