What is 'karyoptosis'? New study suggests scientists may have discovered how Alzhkeimer's kills brain cells

Researchers have identified a new cell death process called 'karyoptosis'. This process involves harmful proteins building up inside brain cells. karyoptosis leads to the nucleus shrinking and breaking apart, causing cell destruction. Targeting this mechanism could offer new hope for dementia treatments. Scientists aim to slow neuron loss and preserve cognitive function.
