A research team from National Taiwan University, Academia Sinica, and National Taiwan University Hospital has uncovered a critical connection between a unique RNA molecule and human aging, including early-stage Alzheimer’s disease. Their findings, recently published in Nucleic Acids Research, spotlight TERRA—a long non-coding RNA transcribed from the ends of chromosomes—as a potential biomarker for age-related and neurodegenerative conditions…
