A new biomarker test can detect early-stage tau protein clumping up to a decade before it appears on brain scans, improving ...

Alzheimer’s disease, a devastating neurodegenerative disorder, is closely linked to the accumulation of tau protein in the ...

Scientists have identified a biomarker for Alzheimer's that may help doctors spot the early signs of protein buildup in the ...

can identify clumping-prone tau proteins and help initiate further diagnostics and early treatment. In particular, the two new phosphorylation sites, p-tau-262 and p-tau-356, can accurately inform ...

Researchers develop early Alzheimers diagnostic method using tau protein analysis Advancements in Alzheimers detection reveal early risks through tau protein mutations ...

Arlette – stock.adobe.com Tau is a naturally occurring protein that helps stabilize nerve cells. Along with another protein, amyloid beta, tau can build up in the brain and disturb cell function.

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

The buildup of knot-like RNA structures in brain cells may be the key to understanding how uncontrolled protein aggregation drives Alzheimer’s disease.

4 Additionally, some areas of the man’s brain had tau tangles—aggregations of hyperphosphorylated tau proteins—that similar to other ... The mice displayed reduced tau phosphorylation in their ...
