Discovery of a new mechanism of neuronal deterioration

A team of researchers headed by Joan Guinovart, director of the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona), and Santiago Rodríguez de Córdoba, professor with the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones (CSIC) in Madrid, have identified a new mechanism that induces neuron death. This new mechanism could be crucial to explain the origin of several neurodegenerative diseases. The study has been published in the online version of Nature Neuroscience.
