α-Linolenic acid inhibits Tau aggregation and modulates Tau conformation

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by important patho-proteins, which being composed of Amyloid-β plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles of Tau. Intrinsically disordered protein tau has several interacting partners, which are necessary for its normal functioning. Tau has been shown to interact with various proteins, nucleic acid, and lipids. α-Linolenic acid (ALA) a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid has been studied for its role as...
