Forget diet myths: New study reveals protein that triggers cholesterol chaos, can wreck brain

A groundbreaking study reveals a hidden cellular highway crucial for cholesterol transport. This pathway, involving the NPC1 protein and guided by VPS41, ensures cholesterol reaches its destination for cell health. When this system falters, cholesterol gets trapped, mirroring severe neurodegenerative diseases and highlighting a new understanding of brain health and metabolism.
