Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase suppression induce human tau phosphorylation by increasing whole body glucose levels in a <i>C</i> . <i>elegans</i> model of Alzheimer’s Disease

Abstract excerpt
The microtubule associated tau protein becomes hyperphosphorylated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). While hyperphosphorylation promotes neurodegeneration, the cause and consequences of this abnormal modification are poorly understood. As impaired energy metabolism is an important hallmark of AD progression, we tested whether it could trigger phosphorylation of human tau protein in a transgenic C. elegans model of AD....
