New Drug Targets Following Discovery Of Molecular Pathway Of Alzheimer's Disease

The discovery of the molecular pathway that drives the changes seen in the brains of Alzheimer's patients is reported, revealing new targets for drug discovery that could be exploited to combat the disease. The study gives the most detailed understanding yet of the complex processes leading to Alzheimer's. Alzheimer's disease is associated with plaques made up of deposits of a molecule called amyloid between brain cells, which leads to the formation of tangles of twisted fibres made from a molecule called tau, found inside the brain cells...
