Potential Therapy For Alzheimer's Disease Revealed By Gene Networks In Brains Of Deceased Patients

Most information about the cause of Alzheimer's disease is based on studies from animal models. Now, a study published by Cell Press in the journal Cell examines the brain tissue of deceased human patients and sheds light on dysfunctions in molecular networks in the brain that are at the root of Alzheimer's disease. By showing that the TYROBP gene plays a key role in disrupting immune system pathways in the brains of Alzheimer's patients, the study reveals a potential therapeutic target for preventing brain damage caused by this debilitating disease... via Health News from Medical News Today Read More Here..
