The Mechanistic Link Between Tau-Driven Proteotoxic Stress and Cellular Senescence in Alzheimer’s Disease
17 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), tau dissociates from microtubules (MTs) due to hyperphosphorylation and misfolding. It is degraded by various mechanisms, including the 20S proteasome, chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), 26S proteasome, macroautophagy, and aggrephagy. Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) form upon the impairment of aggrephagy, and eventually, the ubiquitin chaperone valosin-containing protein (VCP) and...
