UCSF researchers found the cancer drugs letrozole and irinotecan may reverse Alzheimer's effects, reducing tau protein clumps ...

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 ...

Adults with a father who had Alzheimer’s showed greater tau buildup, a key marker of the disease. Women in the study had more ...

Alzheimer’s disease, a devastating neurodegenerative disorder, is closely linked to the accumulation of tau protein in the brain. When tau becomes hyperphosphorylated, it forms neurofibrillary ...

A protein long blamed for the brain damage seen in Alzheimer's disease has now been found in astonishingly high levels in healthy newborn babies, challenging decades of medical dogma.

The neurotransmitter glutamate is essential for regulating everything from mood to memory, but it can also encourage a toxic buildup of protein, which can contribute to Alzheimer’s and related ...

Tau protein in Alzheimer's disease Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder among the elderly, marked by abnormal Tau phosphorylation.

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) ...

Tau: In the healthy brain, tau helps maintain the structure of neurons. In the brain of someone with Alzheimer’s disease, this protein goes awry and develops into NFTs.

Researchers found that people with a father with Alzheimer's disease as well as female participants had a greater spread of tau protein in the brain. Female participants also had a heavier buildup ...

Years before neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) of tau protein show up in brain scans of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a biomarker test developed at the University of Pittsburgh School of ...
