Scientists reveal role for lysosome transport in Alzheimer's disease progression

Scientists reveal role for lysosome transport in Alzheimer's disease progression:

Dementia Big
Researchers from Yale University School of Medicine have discovered that defects in the transport of lysosomes within neurons promote the buildup of protein aggregates in the brains of mice with Alzheimer’s disease. The study, which will be published August 7 in The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB), suggests that developing ways to restore lysosome transport could represent a new therapeutic approach to treating the neurodegenerative disorder.
