α-Synuclein Oligomers Induce a Unique Toxic Tau Strain
16 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The coexistence of α-synuclein and tau aggregates in several neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, raises the possibility that a seeding mechanism is involved in disease progression. METHODS: To further investigate the role of α-synuclein in the tau aggregation pathway, we performed a set of experiments using both recombinant and brain-derived tau and...
