Caption
In Alzheimer's disease, a protein (peptide) forms clumps in the brain and causes sufferers to lose their memory. In a recently published article, a research group at Uppsala University described a new treatment method that increases the body's own degradation of the building blocks that lead to these protein clumps. Fadi Rofo is a doctoral student at the Department of Pharmaceutical Biosciences, Uppsala University and the study's first author.
