The Olfactory Epithelium: A Critical Gateway for Pathological Tau Propagation and a Target for Mitigating Tauopathy in the Central Nervous System
2025-03-10
Abstract excerpt
Olfactory impairment is a recognized early indicator of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Intracellular aggregates of hyperphosphorylated tau protein, referred to as neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), are a hallmark of AD. NFTs are found in the olfactory bulb (OB) and entorhinal cortex (EC), both crucial for processing olfactory information. We explored the hypothesis that typical ta...
