Enriched environment ameliorates propagation of tau pathology and improves cognition in rat model of tauopathy

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
IntroductionThe typical symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are cognitive impairment, disrupted spatial orientation, behavioral and psychiatric abnormalities, and later motor deficits. Neuropathologically, AD is characterized by deposits of pathological

Humanized tau antibodies promote tau uptake by human microglia without any increase of inflammation

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
Immunotherapies targeting pathological tau have recently emerged as a promising approach for treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. We have previously showed that the mouse antibody DC8E8 discriminates between healthy and pathological tau, reduces tau

Monoclonal antibodies targeting two immunodominant epitopes on the Spike protein neutralize emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern

EBioMedicine, 2022
Summary: Background: The emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern B.1.1.7 (Alpha), B.1.351 (Beta), P.1 (Gamma) and B.1.617.2 (Delta) that harbor mutations in the viral S protein raised concern about activity of current vaccines and therapeutic ...

Truncated tau deregulates synaptic markers in rat model for human tauopathy

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Synaptic failure and neurofibrillary degeneration are two major neuropathological substrates of cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Only a few studies have demonstrated a direct relationship between these two AD hallmarks.

Commissural Axon Kinetics and the Role of Netrin in Early Brain Circuitry Development [PDF]

, 2005
As neurons begin to differentiate, they send out processes called axons to initiate the formation of functional nerve connections. A specialized structure at the end of an axon called the growth cone is believed to possess the impressive navigational and

Therapeutic antibody targeting microtubule-binding domain prevents neuronal internalization of extracellular tau via masking neuron surface proteoglycans

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2019
Pathologically altered tau protein is a common denominator of neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other tauopathies.

FUNDAMANT: an interventional 72-week phase 1 follow-up study of AADvac1, an active immunotherapy against tau protein pathology in Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Neurofibrillary pathology composed of tau protein is closely correlated with severity and phenotype of cognitive impairment in patients with Alzheimer’s disease and non-Alzheimer’s tauopathies.
