For years, scientists have assumed high levels of p-tau217 always spell trouble. The new research suggests they’ve been wrong ...

Ribosomes are tiny molecular machines inside all living cells that build proteins, and ribosome biogenesis is the complex, ...

When proteins are made in a cell, they start out as strings of amino acids, which have to be folded into the correct, 3D ...

Urine tests measure specific substances in your urine, such as electrolytes, proteins, and bacteria. These tests can reveal a lot about your health, particularly when gradual changes or big jumps ...

This ‘organized water’ aligns the proteins together, forming neat and orderly fibrils that can then recruit other proteins to misfold and join the stack. With further characterization of the synthetic ...

In summary, while forgetfulness can be a normal part of aging, dementia is a disease that causes much more serious and ongoing memory and thinking problems. Knowing the difference can help people take ...

These misfolded proteins can arise naturally in the body or enter via consumption of infected tissue. In the brain, the abnormal proteins stack together “like a pile of soup dishes in the ...
