An abnormal form of the tau protein found to accumulate in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients also accumulates in the ...

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

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 ...

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

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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
