In a major breakthrough, researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have discovered how amyloid beta–the neurotoxin believed to be at the root of Alzheimer’s disease (AD)–forms in axons and related structures that connect neurons in the brain, where it causes the most damage.
Their findings, published in Cell Reports, could serve as a guidepost for developing new therapies to prevent the onset of this devastating neurological disease.
Among his many contributions to research on AD, Rudolph…
