Jürgen Götz on Quality control of mitochondria: protection against neurodegeneration and ageing.

COMMENT Excellent review, in particular for those groups (including mine) that found (and continue to find) a mitochondrial phenotype in their mouse models of neurodegeneration. 0 j.goetz

Jürgen Götz on Retinal tau pathology in human glaucomas.

COMMENT In a follow-up, it would be interesting to address a range of tau phospho-epitopes. 0 j.goetz

Jürgen Götz on Sedimentation studies on human amylin fail to detect low-molecular-weight oligomers.

COMMENT This may explain our unpublished findings, at the same concentrations, of a more pronounced toxicity of human amylin compared to Aβ42. 0 j.goetz
