Researchers link Alzheimer's disease to herpes virus, suggesting a new path for treatments.
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh found a link between Alzheimer's disease and the herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1).
The study shows that the tau protein, which is often seen as harmful in Alzheimer's, initially protects the brain from the virus but may later contribute to brain damage.
This discovery could lead to new treatments targeting infections and the brain's immune response, and opens avenues for further research into similar mechanisms in other neurodegenerative diseases.
