Abstract excerpt
The intracellular accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau characterizes many neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. A critical role for tau is supported by studies in transgenic mouse models expressing the P301L mutation with accumulation of hyperphosphorylated human tau in hippocampal pyramidal neurons of aged mice. Especially, the somatodendritic mislocalization of...
