Journal ArticleDOI

The cellular localization of preprotachykinin A messenger RNA in the bovine nervous system.

TL;DR: The present findings allow an unambiguous identification of the cellular sites of synthesis of preprotachykinin A messenger RNA; in situ hybridization should also prove a useful technique for investigating the regulation of neuropeptide biosynthesis at the cellular level.
Book ChapterDOI

Tau proteinopathies and the prion concept.

TL;DR: The ordered assembly of a small number of proteins into amyloid filaments is central to age-related neurodegenerative diseases as discussed by the authors, and Tau is the most commonly affected of these proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in the tau gene (MAPT) in FTDP-17: the family with Multiple System Tauopathy with Presenile Dementia (MSTD).

TL;DR: In 1998, the relevance of tau dysfunction for the neurodegenerative process became clear, when mutations in the tau gene were found to cause the inherited "frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17)".
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of an antibody relevant to the neuropathology of Alzheimer disease.

TL;DR: This work has used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, immunoblots, and immunohistochemistry, together with appropriate controls, to show that BR88 does not cross-react with τ, contradicting the claim in question and confirming the previous findings.
