Microtubule-binding drugs offset tau sequestration by stabilizing microtubules and reversing fast axonal transport deficits in a tauopathy model

TL;DR: MT-stabilizing drugs could have therapeutic potential for treating neurodegenerative tauopathies by offsetting losses of tau function that result from the sequestration of this MT-st stabilizing protein into filamentous inclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic evidence for the involvement of τ in progressive supranuclear palsy

TL;DR: A dinucleotide repeat polymorphism in a tau intron was identified and used in a case-control study to analyze the genetic association of tau with several neurodegenerative diseases with tau pathology as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alzheimer's pathology in human temporal cortex surgically excised after severe brain injury.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate a differential distribution and course of intra- and extra-cellular AD-like changes during the acute phase following severe TBI in humans, and provide insight into the molecular mechanisms that initiate these pathological cascades very early during severe brain injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurodegenerative disease concomitant proteinopathies are prevalent, age-related and APOE4-associated

TL;DR: The data imply that increased age and APOE ɛ4 status are risk factors for co-pathologies independent of neurodegenerative disease; that neurodegenersative disease severity influences co- Pathology as evidenced by the prevalence of co- pathology in high Alzheimer's disease and neocortical Lewy body disease, but not intermediate Alzheimer’s disease or limbic LewyBody disease.
