Antisense-mediated Exon Skipping Decreases Tau Protein Expression: A Potential Therapy For Tauopathies
1 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
In Alzheimer's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, and a number of other neurodegenerative diseases, the microtubule associated protein tau aggregates to form intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and glial tangles, abnormal structures that are part of disease pathogenesis. Disorders with aggregated tau are called tauopathies. Presently, there are no disease-modifying treatments for this disease class. Tau...
