Project Summary
As life expectancy increases, so does the prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related

dementias (ADRD), posing significant healthcare burdens. These conditions are linked to aggregates

of specific proteins or proteolytic fragments in central nervous system cells. For example, C-terminal

fragments (CTFs) of the TAR…
