Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are medical conditions characterized by the progressive degradation ...

A team of researchers has developed a laboratory model that recapitulates the pathological aggregation of TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43), a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and ...

The TDP-43 RNA-binding protein is found in abnormal cytoplasmic inclusions in affected motor neurons in almost all ALS cases, and mutations in the TDP-43 gene (TARDBP) cause a rare form of familial ...

An 86-year-old woman develops classic amnestic symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease in her last years of life, but upon autopsy, her brain bears but a modest burden of Aβ plaques and tau tangles. Instead, ...

While biomarkers have transformed Alzheimer’s research, much work remains to be done to develop these important tools for other neurodegenerative diseases, not to mention for the concurrent ...

TDP is typically defined as Thermal Design Power, the amount of power (heat) that a cooler must dissipate in order to keep a silicon chip within its operating temperatures. While Intel and AMD ...
