Researchers find accumulation of amyloid beta protein at sites of potassium depletion in the brain

by University of Bristol Potassium isotope compositions of minipig brain regions indicate heavy K isotope enrichment coincident with amyloid beta accumulation, suggesting a mechanistic linkage and potential for downstream signal transferal to blood serum (i.e. noninvasive diagnostic potential).
