Small critical RNAs in the scrapie agent

open access: yes, 2009
Unconventional infectious agents cause transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) diseases including scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in animals and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans. The protein only hypothesis claims that the TSE

The Polymers of Life: Exploring Cellular Function Through Polymer Concepts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
Biomolecular phase separation reveals that a hidden layer of cellular organization is governed by the principles of polymer science. This review bridges polymer physics and cell biology, offering a primer on fundamental concepts, proposing a framework for interrogating cellular function, and synthesizing biophysical methods for decoding macromolecular ...

Brain regional susceptibility to tauopathy in individuals at risk for chronic traumatic encephalopathy

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a tauopathy linked to repetitive head impacts. Factors influencing brain regional susceptibility to tau deposition and spreading remain unclear. METHODS We used three datasets: [18F]flortaucipir positron emission tomography (PET) in 157 former professional American football players and 53 ...

Mitochondrial NADK2‐dependent NADPH controls tau oligomer uptake in human neurons

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Reduced brain energy metabolism, mitochondria dysfunction, and extracellular tau oligomer buildup characterize Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how these phenomena cooperatively promote neurodegeneration is poorly understood. We now report that tau oligomers (TauOs) pathologically coordinate mitochondrial metabolism with increased ...
