Tubulin may be a hidden shield against Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
A structural protein best known for building the internal scaffolding of cells may double as a natural defense against the ...
Cellular life hinges on a network of hollow cables called microtubules dynamically lengthening and shortening according to the needs of the moment. During cell division, for instance, these cables ...
As organisms grow, live, and move through the world, they're subjected to an array of internal and external forces. Biological forms must be able to withstand the stresses of stretching and ...
Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...
Clumps and tangles of tau protein are associated with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, but tau protein also plays a role in healthy nerve cells. Healthy tau can assemble into an envelope ...
A joint research team from the LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) and the Faculty of Science at the University of Hong Kong has uncovered an unexpected interaction between chemotherapeutic agents and a ...
Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) have discovered how proteins work in tandem to regulate 'treadmilling', a mechanism used by the network of microtubules inside cells to ensure ...
