For each structural strain of tau fibrils, they identified amino acids without which the strain cannot form its signature ...

The X contains more genes related to brain function than does any other chromosome. “The X chromosome may be a treasure trove of genes that influence cognition, and these could be therapeutic targets, ...

Stop the Spread. Injecting saline into mouse kidneys did not affect the left or right substantia nigra (top). Injecting fibrils of α-synuclein ablated about half of the dopaminergic neurons (middle ...

Sphere of Influence. In iAssembloids, microglia (red) form projections (white arrows), while astrocytes (green) assume star shapes typically found in the brain. [Courtesy of Kampmann et al., 2025.] ...

The Amyloid—Tangle Connection. Aβ aggregates (green) hyper-excite neurons in tau epicenters and connected regions, strengthening that connectivity. This pushes tau propagation from one region to ...

EBP1 is low in Alzheimer’s disease brains, hinting at human relevance. “Our study suggests that … preservation of functional EBP1 could be a therapeutic strategy for AD,” the authors noted. The ...
