The loss of α- and β-tubulin proteins are a pathological hallmark of chronic alcohol consumption and natural brain ageing (2018)
Journal Article
Labisso, W., Raulin, A., Nwidu, L., Kocon, A., Wayne, D., Erdozain, A., …Carter, W. (2018). The loss of α- and β-tubulin proteins are a pathological hallmark of chronic alcohol consumption and natural brain ageing. Brain Sciences, 8(9), Article 175. https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci8090175

Repetitive excessive alcohol intoxication leads to neuronal damage and brain shrinkage. We examined cytoskeletal protein expression in human post-mortem tissue from Brodmann’s area 9 of the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Brain samples from 44 individuals w...
