Without TMEM106B, Lysosomal Traffic Jams Wreak Havoc in Neurons
In motor neurons of TMEM106b knockout mice, swollen vacuoles piled up in axons near the soma, rendering the mice wobbly and slow to react. The finding contradicts prior reports.

The monoclonal antibody activated TREM2 signaling on mouse microglia. It supported their survival and stimulated their clearance of amyloid plaques.
At Tau2020 conference, scientists implicate LDL receptor-related protein 1 in cell-to-cell transmission.
Autopsy data confirm that current tau PET tracers are unsuitable for some primary tauopathies. CryoEM structures help researchers find new ligands for tau and α-synuclein.
Not sure where that is? You are not alone. It is a tiny spot deep behind the nose, newly defined by the PET signal of early neurofibrillary tangle deposition. It also prompted a tau-staging scheme.
At the at Tau2020 conference, scientists show high-resolution cryoEM of α-synuclein. Two different types of fibril are composed of asymmetric protofibril units.
