Proteomics analysis of the neurodegeneration in the brain of tau transgenic mice.

Abstract excerpt

Protein tau, a major microtubule-binding protein in the brain, comprises six isoforms generated through alternative mRNA splicing. A dysfunctional form of mutant and normal tau is associated or implicated in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative disorders. The neuropathological hallmark of these tau-opathies are intraneuronal depositions of fibrillary aggregates of which neurofibrillary tangles are most...
