TLDR
In this paper, the authors used Cry2-based optogenetics to induce tau oligomers (oTau-c), which elicits tau phosphorylation, aggregation, and reduced protein synthesis.

Tau liquid-liquid phase separation in neurodegenerative diseases.

TL;DR: Tau alone or in the presence of RNA has a high propensity to undergo liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), forming liquid droplets as mentioned in this paper , which may contribute to normal biological functions of the protein as well as to tau pathology in neurodegenerative diseases.

RNA modifications: importance in immune cell biology and related diseases

TL;DR: In this article , the authors present existing knowledge of the biological functions and underlying mechanisms of RNA modifications, including N 6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A), 5-methylcytosine(m 5 C), N 1 -methyl adenosine,m 1 A), N 7 -methylguanosine (n 7 G), N 4 -acetylacetylcytusine (ac 4 C), pseudouridine (Ψ), uridylation, and A-to-I RNA editing, and summarize their critical roles in immune cell biology and highlight the challenges and future directions based on the existing knowledge.

The IGF2BP family of RNA binding proteins links epitranscriptomics to cancer.

TL;DR: In this paper , the regulatory roles of IGF2BP proteins and their molecular role as m6A modification readers to the cellular phenotype are summarized and a comprehensive insight into the IGF 2BP function is provided.

Tau interactome and RNA binding proteins in neurodegenerative diseases

TL;DR: The authors in this paper provided a combined analysis of 12 tau interactome studies of human brain tissue, human cell culture models and rodent models of disease. But, despite the common presence of tau aggregates in these diseases the affected brain regions, clinical symptoms, and morphology, conformation, and isoform ratio present in tau aggregation varies widely.

RNA induces unique tau strains and stabilizes Alzheimer’s disease seeds

TL;DR: In this article , the authors found that three RNA homopolymers, polyA, polyU, and polyC, all bound tau, but only polyA triggered seed and fibril formation.

STRING v11: protein-protein association networks with increased coverage, supporting functional discovery in genome-wide experimental datasets.

TL;DR: The latest version of STRING more than doubles the number of organisms it covers, and offers an option to upload entire, genome-wide datasets as input, allowing users to visualize subsets as interaction networks and to perform gene-set enrichment analysis on the entire input.

Tau Suppression in a Neurodegenerative Mouse Model Improves Memory Function

TL;DR: NFTs are not sufficient to cause cognitive decline or neuronal death in this model of tauopathy, and after the suppression of transgenic tau, memory function recovered, and neuron numbers stabilized, but to the authors' surprise, NFTs continued to accumulate.
