Tau oligomers impair memory and induce synaptic and mitochondrial dysfunction in wild-type mice

TL;DR: It is reported that oligomers of recombinant full-length human tau protein are neurotoxic in vivo after subcortical stereotaxic injection into mice, and suggests that tau oligomers induce neurodegeneration by affecting mitochondrial and synaptic function, both of which are early hallmarks in AD and other tauopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of oligomers at early stages of tau aggregation in Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: A novel tau oligomer‐specific antibody is engineered and used to elucidate the temporal course and biochemical features of oligomers during NFT development in AD brain and highlight the suitability of tAU oligomers as therapeutic targets in AD and related tauopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alzheimer brain-derived tau oligomers propagate pathology from endogenous tau.

TL;DR: It is observed for the first time that these authentic brain-derived tau oligomers propagate abnormal tau conformation of endogenous murine tau after prolonged incubation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mechanisms of amyloid oligomers toxicity.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the complexity and dynamic nature of amyloid oligomers may be responsible for the discrepancy among these mechanisms and the proposed cellular targets for amyloids oligomers.
