Oxidized MIF is an Alzheimer’s disease drug target relaying external risk factors to tau pathology Müller-Schiffmann et al. identify oxidized MIF as a molecular hub relaying the effects of external stressors (e.g., infection with HSV-1) to cellular pathology associated with sporadic Alzheimer’s disease. Small-molecule compound PAV-174/ PAV-617 revert oxidized MIF and contingent tau phosphorylation and aggregation independent of viral infection in vitro and in vivo.

Protein aggregates are analogous to the wreckage after a car crash at an unmarked intersection. Placement of a stop sign is more effective than calling more tow trucks. Antibodies clean up the wreckage, but do not prevent future car crashes. This installs🛑https://shorturl.at/RtKWK
