A designer version of the tau protein, developed by a team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers, maintains its ...

One of the main proteins that contributes to Alzheimer's disease is called phospho-tau (p-tau). When p-tau gets too many ...

A biomarker test identified tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease before fibrillary tangles developed. Neurofibrillary tangle formation can be prevented by targeting intermediate soluble tau assemblies ...

One dose of a new treatment, delivered by nasal spray, clears away build-ups of the toxic tau protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease from inside brain cells, improving memory, according to new ...

The misfolded proteins tau and α-syn cause irregular aggregation and spread in neurodegenerative illnesses, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). In AD, tau protein becomes ...

One of the main proteins that contributes to Alzheimer's disease is called phospho-tau (p-tau). When p-tau gets too many ...

A new study has somewhat redeemed the tau protein, which up to now has been associated with the development of Alzheimer’s disease. Turns out, the protein has a ‘good guy’ role, helping to protect ...

The human brain is an incredible, complex web of connections. Cells called neurons send signals from region to region, and their communication allows us to do everything from forming thoughts to ...
