Hippocampal neuronal subpopulations are differentially affected in double transgenic mice overexpressing frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 tau and glycogen synthase kinase-3beta.

Abstract excerpt

Glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta) has been proposed as the main kinase able to phosphorylate tau aberrantly in Alzheimer's disease and in related tauopathies. We have previously generated a double transgenic mouse line overexpressing the enzyme GSK-3beta and tau protein carrying a triple frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 mutation whose expression patterns overlap in CA1...
