The prion-like properties of amyloid-beta peptide and tau: Is there any risk of transmitting alzheimer's disease during neurosurgical interventions?

Recent studies have recognized similarities between the peptides involved in the neuropathology of Alzheimer’s disease and prions. The Tau protein and the Amyloid β peptide represent the theoretical pillars of Alzheimer’s disease development. It is probable that there is a shared mechanism for the t...
