The deposition of abnormal tau protein is characteristic of Alzheimer’s disease(AD)and a class of neurodegenerative diseases called tauopathies.Physiologically,tau maintains an intrinsically disordered structure and ...
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an increasingly prevalent neurodegenerative disease characterized by protein aggregation in the form of amyloid plaques containing beta-amyloid peptides and neurofibrillary tan...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, is one of the leading causes of death in the aging population, and has become a serious public problem endangering the physical and mental health o...
