Verbatim
“By specifically targeting the interaction between p38 MAP kinase and LaminB1 we may slow down the process of cell death, buying time for more pinpointed therapies against specific neurodegenerative diseases”
“Our study is important for the understanding of dementia because it clarifies that there are multiple ways in which neurons die and the one specifically characterised by us, karyoptosis, was entirely unknown before. This information draws a new picture of the pathways that must be acted upon to keep the brain cells alive in dementia.”
