Elevated 4R-tau in Astrocytes From Asymptomatic Carriers of the MAPT 10+16 Mutation
2020-12-04
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>The <italic>MAPT</italic> 10+16 intronic mutation causes frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) by increasing expression of four-repeat (4R)-tau isoforms. We investigated the potential role for astrocytes in the pathogenesis of FTLD by studying the expression of 4R-tau. We derived astrocytes and neurons from induced pluripotent stem cells from two asymptomatic 10+16 carriers and, comp...
