Extracellular Monomeric Tau Protein Is Sufficient to Initiate the Spread of Tau Protein Pathology
1 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
Understanding the formation and propagation of aggregates of the Alzheimer disease-associated Tau protein in vivo is vital for the development of therapeutics for this devastating disorder. Using our recently developed live-cell aggregation sensor in neuron-like cells, we demonstrate that different variants of exogenous monomeric Tau, namely full-length Tau (hTau40) and the Tau-derived construct K18 comprising...
