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

SignalChem Biotech, part of Sino Biological, provides a comprehensive range of products and services in biotechnology and life sciences. We provide kinase drug discovery solutions spanning from target ...

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 ...

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 ...

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. Using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) ...

This breakthrough was made possible by the development of a novel transgenic mouse model that replicates both tau and beta-amyloid pathologies. “Although both proteins accumulate in the brains ...

June 15, 2021 — A new therapy prompts immune defense cells to swallow misshapen proteins, amyloid beta plaques and tau tangles, whose buildup is known to kill nearby brain cells as part of ...

A complementary drug to combat Alzheimer's disease could target a specific part of the nerve cell protein tau. This is the finding of research from the University of Gothenburg, which also offers a ...

Researchers often target proteins for drug therapies, so it’s important to know which are present in a given time and place. Nautilus scientists have focused on tau proteins, which are present ...
