A research team from the Institut de Neurociències of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (INc-UAB) has discovered that the ...

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 ...

A new study reveals that tau protein affects memory, while beta-amyloid disrupts emotions in Alzheimer’s disease. Using a novel mouse model, researchers found that both proteins interact to worsen ...

A research team from the Institut de Neurociències of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (INc-UAB) has discovered that the ...

The new research also found that tau protein in the brain, considered a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease, may initially play a protective role against viral infections. “Identifying health ...

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 ...

What if a simple saliva test could diagnose PTSD? In the latest episode of TAU Unbound, Tel Aviv University's flagship ...

Tau is a microtubule-associated protein encoded by the MAPT gene located on chromosome 17q21. It promotes microtubule assembly and stability and may play a role in establishing and maintaining ...

Rainwater Prizes honor researchers worldwide who are advancing discoveries for diseases caused by tau protein accumulations ...

This p-tau then suppressed ICP27, hinting that neurons may initially ramp up p-tau production to combat viral infection. Expression of herpes simplex protein ICP27 is elevated in AD brain. In infected ...

A research team has discovered that the two key pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's -- tau protein and beta-amyloid -- affect brain circuits in distinct yet synergistic ways, particularly those ...
