Abstract excerpt
Tau microtubule-associated proteins are believed to play a role in regulation of the growth of neuronal processes. In order to study the function of tau protein in vivo, we examined the inhibition of tau expression in PC12 cells by exposing the cells to tau antisense oligodeoxynucleotides. A specific retraction of neurites was observed after 3-4 days of incubation with nerve growth factor (NGF) and the antisense...
