Toxic RNAs & Alzheimer’s: Brain’s Hidden Mystery!
Decoding The Micro- Drama
Toxic RNAs may cause Alzheimer’s! Yes, that is what new study shows. So, the micro-sized bombshell, toxic RNAs might be the masterminds behind Alzheimer’s. From my view, let’s speed through this microscopic thriller and expose the brain’s hidden secrets.
RNA Showdown: Brain’s Tiny Turmoil
DNA’s blueprint needs messengers – cue short RNAs. We can call them the rebels stirring cellular chaos. It’s like a Marvel movie, but with RNAs battling for control.
SuperAgers: Brain’s Timeless Heroes?
Meet SuperAgers, the brain rockstars aged 80+. They always keep flaunting memories that make 50-year-olds envious. But what’s heir secret? Umm…that would be loads of protective short RNAs, playing brain Avengers.
Brain’s Drama: Imbalance Alert!
In a Hollywood twist, Northwestern Medicine’s brain wizards have found an RNA teeter-totter – protective vs. toxic short RNAs. Aging tilts the balance by setting the stage for Alzheimer’s sneak attack.
FAQs:
Q. Can toxic RNAs cause Alzheimer’s?
