Accumulation of abnormally phosphorylated τ precedes the formation of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: It is suggested that the accumulation of abnormally phosphorylated tau is one of the earliest cytoskeletal changes in the process of tangle formation and exposure of certain ubiquitin epitopes in the pathological fibers may reflect an unsuccessful attempt of proteolytic degradation.
