Amyloid plaque deposition accelerates tau propagation via activation of microglia in a humanized APP mouse model
2020-09-22
Abstract excerpt
Microglia have an emerging role in development of tau pathology after amyloid plaque deposition in Alzheimer’s disease, although it has not been definitively shown. We hypothesize that plaque-associated activated microglia accelerate tau propagation via enhanced phagocytosis and secretion of tau. Here we show that the injection of adeno-associated virus expressing P301L tau mutant into the medial entorhinal cortex...
