Myristic acid hitchhiking on sigma-1 receptor to fend off neurodegeneration
Neurodegenerative diseases are linked to tauopathy as a result of cyclin dependent kinase 5 (cdk5) binding to its p25 activator instead of its p35 activator and becoming over-activated. The overactive complex stimulates the hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins, leading to neurofibrillary tangles (NF...
