Baylor医学院以及Jan和Dan Duncan神经学研究所的研究人员发现,与神经退化性疾病有关的蛋白质Tau具有神经保护功能。 Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute discovered that Tau, a protein linked to neurodegenerative diseases, has a neuroprotective function. Tau减轻过量反应氧气物种或自由基造成的神经损伤,促进健康的老龄化。 Tau mitigates neuronal damage caused by excessive reactive oxygen species or free radicals and promotes healthy aging. 在发挥这一作用时,Tau协助从神经元中隔离有毒过氧化脂肪,减少氧化损害,保护大脑。 In this role, Tau assists in sequestering toxic peroxidized lipids from neurons, reducing oxidative damage and protecting the brain. 这一发现为利用Tau的保护能力治疗神经退化状况开辟了新的途径。 This finding opens new avenues for treating neurodegenerative conditions by harnessing Tau's protective abilities.
