THY-Tau22 mice are a model for tau aggregation, a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease as well as numerous tauopathies. With age these mice develop a variety of tau-related neuropathological ...

Plasma p-tau217 has rapidly pushed to the forefront of Alzheimer’s biomarkers, proving as accurate at predicting plaques as amyloid PET. However, it is less clear how well this blood marker stacks up ...

This approach uses mesenchymal stem cells isolated from a patient’s own fat tissue to treat neurodegenerative diseases. The stem cells are supposed to assist in repair of damaged tissue and ...
