Researchers have developed an automated method that can track the development of harmful clumps of TAU protein related to Alzheimer’s disease in the brain, according to work involving 443 individuals. The method revealed that TAU primarily emerged in an area of the brain called the rhinal cortex before spreading elsewhere, suggesting that targeting TAU here could potentially slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.
The buildup of toxic amyloid-beta and TAU proteins is responsible for many of…
