AD, PART and CTE share the same 3R/4R-tau+ NFTs, but in a different distribution … what about their proteomes? Excited to share our spatial proteomics study comparing #Alzheimers, #PART and #CTE hippocampi doi.org/10.1002/alz....

Spatial proteomic differences in chronic traumatic encephalopathy, Alzheimer's disease, and primary age‐related tauopathy hippocampi
INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's disease (AD), primary age-related tauopathy (PART), and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) all feature hyperphosphorylated tau (p-tau)–immunoreactive neurofibrillary deg...

Brains of Alzheimer's patients—but look at the other aggregated proteins! We explore how two distinct variants of αSynuclein co-pathology contribute to hippocampal degeneration. Check out our new article in @braincomms.bsky.social: academic.oup.com/braincomms/a... 🧠🧪

Here’s a pineal gland, named after the pine cone! Did you know Descartes thought the pineal was the seat of the soul? www.neurology.org/doi/10.1212/...
The brain is cut in the axial plane here. What other structures can you identify? Happy Holidays! #neuroskyence #neuropath #neurology #neuroanatomy

I could not be more thrilled to announce the Nature Methods @naturemethods.bsky.social Method of the Year is Spatial Proteomics! Please see our editorial as a roadmap to the fantastic content in this special issue! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Method of the Year 2024: spatial proteomics - Nature Methods
Approaches for profiling the spatial proteome in tissues are the basis of atlas-scale projects that are delivering on their promise for understanding biological complexity in health and disease.
