Increased Neuronal Activity Stimulates Spread of Tau Proteins in the Brain
Neurodegenerative disease researchers have found that tau proteins released from donor neurons can transfer to recipient cells via the medium, suggesting that at least one mechanism by which tau can transfer in the brain is via the extracellular space. More...04 Aug 2016

Defective Lipoprotein Binding in the Brain Linked to Alzheimer's Disease Risk
Mutations in the TREM2 (Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2) gene, which encodes a protein expressed selectively by microglia in the brain, have been linked to disrupted binding of lipoproteins and are associated with the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). More...03 Aug 2016

Phosphorylation Turns a Tumor Suppressor into a Promoter of Cancer Development
Cancer researchers have determined the molecular mechanism by which a modification to the protein encoded by the RUNX3 gene turns a tumor suppressor into a promoter of cancer development and progression. More...03 Aug 2016
