Abstract excerpt
Because filamentous neuronal tau inclusions are neuropathologic hallmarks of Pick's disease and a number of other neurodegenerative disorders known as tauopathies, the authors generated lines of transgenic (Tg) mice that overexpress the shortest human tau isoform in the CNS. These Tg mice accumulated argyrophilic and filamentous tau immunoreactive neuronal inclusions with age in cortex and brainstem as well as in...
