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

Scientists have discovered a new protein pathway involved in neurodegeneration by studying “mini-brain” organoids made from ...

Scientists see several important uses for staging. For example, it can steer people more precisely to appropriate treatments.

The function of Tau protein belonging to microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) is to stabilize the microtubule network within neuronal axons [26]. Tau protein is considered to play a central role in ...

Researchers simulated interactions between microbial molecules and neural receptors to explore whether gut bacteria might influence brain chemistry.

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 ...
