Neurodegenerative disorders : through gain of function /
A fundamental change is occurring in the understanding of the major neurodegenerative disorders. Protein aggregation is a common emerging theme in diseases as diverse as Alzheimer's, Creutzfeld-Jakob, Parkinson's, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. If valid, then a small number of diagnost...
