The new approach can prevent neurotoxic proteins in ALS

Scientists from Goethe University, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and Kiel University discover a possible method of preventing protein aggregates – the Cluster4future Proxidrugs research project. If the TDP-43 protein is defective inside the nerve cell, it can create neurotoxic aggregates that cause a neurodegenerative lateral nitrogenic sclerosis (ALS). Nerve cells are also damaged by TDP-43 […]
