Journal ArticleDOI

Abnormal phosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein tau (tau) in Alzheimer cytoskeletal pathology

TL;DR: It is suggested that tau in Alzheimer brain is an abnormally phosphorylated protein component of PHF, the two major locations of paired-helical filaments in Alzheimer disease brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microtubule-associated protein tau. A component of Alzheimer paired helical filaments.

TL;DR: Human brain tau and paired helical filament polypeptides co-migrated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels suggest that tau is a major component of Alzheimer paired helicals filaments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defeating Alzheimer's disease and other dementias: a priority for European science and society

TL;DR: This poster aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, which aims to provide real-time information about the physical and cognitive properties of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tau pathology in Alzheimer disease and other tauopathies

TL;DR: Inhibition of this tau abnormality is one of the most promising therapeutic approaches to AD and other tauopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperphosphorylation induces self-assembly of τ into tangles of paired helical filaments/straight filaments

TL;DR: It appears that τ self-assembles by association of the microtubule binding domains/repeats and that the abnormal hyperphosphorylation promotes the self-assembly of τ into tangles of PHF and straight filaments by neutralizing the inhibitory basic charges of the flanking regions.
