UC Davis research reveals a novel role for how tau functions in healthy nerve cells

In Alzheimer's Disease and other neurodegenerative dementias, proteins that normally play a role in healthy brain tissue turn bad, clumping together to form insoluble plaques and tangles as neurons wither and die.

CU professor explores for noninvasive ways to detect vascularized composite allograft rejection

Soldiers and others who receive severe injuries to the hands and face often can benefit from a type of transplant known as vascularized composite allograft (VCA) - the transplantation of multiple tissues, including muscle, bone, nerve, skin, and blood vessels, as a functional unit (such as a hand or face) from a deceased donor to a recipient with a severe injury.

Mouse embryoids offer a promising model system to spur research into embryonic development and disease

Scientists funded in part by the National Institutes of Health have generated a mouse embryo model, or embryoid, that develops beyond neurulation—formation of the neural tube, which gives rise to the central nervous system—and closely mirrors natural mouse embryos 8.5 days after fertilization.

Study identifies novel neutrophil biomarkers of delayed recovery in COVID-19

Researchers map the proteomes of peripheral blood neutrophils isolated from hospitalized COVID-19 patients using high-resolution LC-MS.
