Polyubiquitin may stabilize tau filaments in neurodegenerative disease

Original: Polyubiquitin may stabilize tau filament structures in neurodegenerative diseases

Researchers report that polyubiquitin may help stabilize the tau filament structures found in the brains of people with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. The finding could improve understanding of how tau tangles persist and point toward new therapeutic approaches targeting protein aggregation.

Why now: New research suggesting a role for polyubiquitin in tau pathology is relevant to ongoing efforts to treat Alzheimer's and related dementias.
