Pathology dynamics in healthy-toxic protein interaction and the multiscale analysis of neurodegenerative diseases
Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases are frequently associated with aggregation and propagation of toxic proteins. In particular, it is well known that along with amyloid-beta, the tau protein is also driving Alzheimers disease. Multiscale reaction-diffusion models can assist in our better understanding of the evolution of the disease. We have modified the heterodimer model in such a way that it can now capture some of critical characteristics of this evolution such as the conversion time from healthy to toxic proteins. We have analyzed the modified model theoretically and validated the theoretical findings with numerical simulations.
