Investigation of differentially expressed proteins through neurofibrillary tangle maturation in Alzheimer’s disease using NanoString’s GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler
Abstract:BackgroundNeurofibrillary tangles are dynamic entities with a lifespan encompassing three maturity levels: intracellular pretangles, intracellular mature tangles, and extracellular ghost tangles. Proteins are suggested to be differentially expressed throughout the tangle lifespan; however, past studies may be limited by spatial expression or number of proteins investigated. We sought to assess differences in protein expression across the tangle lifespan using GeoMxTM Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP) by NanoStrin… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
