Antibody Helps Detect Protein Implicated in Alzheimer’s, Other Diseases
Washington University in St. LouisTangles of the protein tau dot the brains of people with diseases like Alzheimer’s. Now, researchers have found a way to measure tau in the blood that accurately reflects tau in the brain. The study, in mice and a small group of people, could be the first step towards a non-invasive test for tau.
