Tau spreading is driven by neuronal connectivity in primary tauopathies - evidence from tau-PET and histopathology
2021-08-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Tau pathology is the main driver of neuronal dysfunction in 4-repeat tauopathies (4RT), including cortico-basal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Tau is assumed to spread prion-like across connected neurons, but the mechanisms of tau propagation are largely elusive in 4RTs, characterized not only by neuronal but also by astroglial and oligodendroglial tau accumulation. Here,...
