Axonal Degeneration Induced by Targeted Expression of Mutant Human Tau in Oligodendrocytes of Transgenic Mice That Model Glial Tauopathies
12 Oct 2005
Abstract excerpt
Abundant filamentous tau inclusions in oligodendrocytes (OLGs) are hallmarks of neurodegenerative tauopathies, including sporadic corticobasal degeneration and hereditary frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17). However, mechanisms of neurodegeneration in these tauopathies are unclear in part because of the lack of animal models for experimental analysis. We address this by...
