Antioxidant SOD1 puts up fight, loses battle against toxic tau protein linked to Alzheimer’s disease
A team of Iowa State University researchers is the first to identify the correlation between the antioxidant superoxide dismutase, or SOD1, with tau proteins in brains with Alzheimer's disease. The team's new research may explain why SOD1, which protects the brain, is also associated with deterioration in areas susceptible to Alzheimer’s disease. Read More
