Protein ‘traffic jam’ linked to neurodegeneration
line1
The Cruelest Cut: EPFL article about our new paper, led by Jamshid, which shows that Retromer deficiency, which is implicated in both Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s Disease, increases human Tau truncation and toxicity. In the paper we also describe new tools to quantitate neurodegeneration with single synapse or axon resolution in intact Drosophila brains.
