In this case, they're looking at three different plasma biomarkers, that's phosphorylated tau 217 or p-tau217, neurofilament light chain (NfL), and glial fibrillary acidic protein or GFAP.

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

Researchers have identified a specific form of the tau protein that is responsible for mediating the toxicity of harmful protein clumps in human neurons and thus represents a target for future treatme ...

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

Researchers from the Institut de Neurociències of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (INc-UAB) have found that tau protein and beta-amyloid – two pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease – ...

Mar. 30, 2022 — In the course of Alzheimer's disease, two proteins called 'amyloid' and 'tau' accumulate in the brain. A new study with more than 200 participants now provides insights into the ...

A team of researchers from the University of Cologne has made an important contribution to understanding the role of the tau ...

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 protein and beta-amyloid, key factors in Alzheimer's disease, impact brain circuits differently, with tau affecting memory-related areas and beta-amyloid influencing emotional centers.
