Proteins Recruited to Exosomes by Tau Overexpression Implicate Novel Cellular Mechanisms Linking Tau Secretion with Alzheimer's Disease
27 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
Tau misprocessing to form aggregates and other toxic species has emerged as a major feature in our developing understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The significance of tau misprocessing in AD has been further emphasized by recent studies showing that tau can be secreted from neurons via exosomes and may itself be an important agent in the spreading of neurofibrillary lesions...
