It’s a truth often played for laughs that alcohol messes with your brain function. That’s why the cops make you do stuff like walk in a straight line and touch your nose when they suspect you ...

When developing the therapy, Webber said the research team decided to use specialized blood cells called macrophages as the cellular chassis because of their ability to engulf proteins from their ...

Phosphorylation enables tau protein to undergo reversible liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), forming micrometer-sized droplets, a property not seen in unmodified tau.

Researchers tracked three key biomarkers associated with neurodegenerative changes: neurofilament light chain proteins, glial fibrillary acidic proteins and phosphorylated tau 181. Each of these ...

Research published in the Journal of Neurochemistry has detailed the role of a protein, hnRNP A1, in the formation and stability of myelin, suggesting an important impact on neurodegenerative ...

A new study reveals that people whose fathers had Alzheimer’s are at greater risk of brain changes linked to the disease, particularly due to increased tau protein buildup. This challenges earlier ...

Recent research has indicated a potential connection between having a father diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease and an increased spread of tau protein in the brain, a marker associated with the ...

But now, Canadian scientists say children who have Dad's with Alzheimer's are more prone to one toxic protein, tau, spreading in the brain. Significant clumps of this protein, as well as anothe ...

The study also showed that female participants may be more at risk of a heavier buildup of tau protein than male participants. "We were surprised to see that people with a father with Alzheimer's ...
