The study reveals that introducing progerin, a protein associated with accelerated aging, into cellular models of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) can hasten the development of AD-related traits. This innovative approach offers a more efficient method for studying AD mechanisms, potentially accelerating the discovery of new treatments.
