7 out of 10 dementia cases worldwide are due to Alzheimer's.
to find a cure for Alzheimer’s, specific treatments to prevent the disease are still lacking.
. Now Alzheimer’s is caused by an abnormal build-up of the protein beta-amyloid - a small protein secreted by neurons - in and around brain cells.The 238 genes identified by the team could modulate the toxicity of the protein beta-amyloid.Saccharomyces cerevisiae Study’s coordinator, Francisco J. Muñoz further explains: “Calcium is one of the most important messengers that transfer information from the outside to within cells. It is involved in almost all cell functions. Hence, when the Surf4 protein is overexpressed, which decreases calcium entry and aborts the cellular processes dependent on it, neurons cannot function, and they become very sensitive to amyloid toxicity.
