Brain Protein's Virus-Like Structure May Help Explain Cancer-Induced Memory Loss
University of Utah Health

In a rare but serious complication of cancer, the immune system can start attacking the brain, causing rapid memory loss. What triggers this was largely unknown. Now, researchers at University of Utah Health have found that some tumors can release a virus-like protein, kickstarting an out-of-control autoimmune reaction.
