Imagine trying to find a specific plant species in a dense forest. Now imagine trying to detect tiny aggregates in the human brain without invasive methods. This is the challenge researchers face when it comes to detecting α-synuclein aggregates, which are associated with neurodegenerative diseases. However, a recent study has made progress by developing novel […]
Imagine a park that’s filled with playful animals and vibrant plants. Everything is perfectly balanced, from the number of squirrels to the variety of flowers. But one day, chaos ensues as the animals start misbehaving and the flowers wither away. This, my friends, is what happens in the gut microbiota of mice with Parkinson’s disease […]
Just like analyzing weather patterns can predict a storm, scientists have discovered that measuring levels of plasma phosphorylated-tau181 (p-tau181) can predict post-stroke cognitive impairment. This blood biomarker, along with other neurodegeneration markers such as amyloid-beta (Aβ), tau, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), can help determine the risk of cognitive decline after a stroke. In a […]
