Late-onset Alzheimer's disease is a debilitating, progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects about 7 million ...

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, is a degenerative brain disease linked to repetitive head trauma. Here's how it ...

This manuscript describes the identification and characterization of 12 specific phosphomimetic mutations in the recombinant full-length human tau protein that trigger tau to form fibrils. This ...

Life takes its toll on our brains. Our brain cells pick up wear and tear over the years, causing our minds to become slower, forgetful and have slower movements. But it's been unclear whether this ...

Repetitive head impacts appear to be the chief risk factor for CTE, which is characterized by misfolded tau protein that is unlike changes observed from aging, Alzheimer’s disease, or any other brain ...

Wycheck's family announced this week that the former Tennessee Titans tight end, who played in the NFL for 11 seasons, suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, before he died on Dec ...

New study led by Prof Karen Duff, Dr Naoto Watamura, & Dr Martha Foiani (UK DRI at UCL) with Prof Takaomi Saido (Riken Center for Brain Science, Japan) reveals insight into the early stages of toxic ...

Altered cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau proteins have been found in PDD, with intermediate changes for Aβ42 in non-demented PD. The authors investigated whether AD-related ...

Their study suggests that the tau protein, typically seen as detrimental, might initially act as a defensive mechanism in the brain. This groundbreaking finding opens up new possibilities for ...

Years later, it was replaced with exciting-looking “low carb” claims. These days, “high in protein” is a benefit you’ll see touted on lots of products, whether they’re protein powder, bone broth, ...
