Scientists in the UK and Belgium think they have figured out how brain cells die in Alzheimer's disease.
It has been a mystery and a source of scientific debate for decades.
But the team, writing in the journal Science, connect the abnormal proteins that build up in the brain with "necroptosis" - a form of cellular suicide.
The findings have been described as "cool" and "exciting", as they give new ideas for treating the disease. https://www.bbc.com/news/health-66816268
