Parkinson-ALS with a novel MAPT variant

open access: yesNeurological Sciences, 2023
AbstractThe mutations on microtubule associated protein tau (MAPT) gene manifest clinically with behavioural frontotemporal dementia (FTD), parkinsonism, such as progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration, and rarely with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Association of MAPT haplotypes with Alzheimer’s disease risk and MAPT brain gene expression levels [PDF]

open access: yesAlzheimer's Research & Therapy, 2014
Abstract Introduction MAPT encodes for tau, the predominant component of neurofibrillary tangles that are neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Genetic association of MAPT variants with late-onset AD (LOAD) risk has been inconsistent, although insufficient power and incomplete ...

Phenotypes associated with MAPT duplications [PDF]

open access: yesAlzheimer's & Dementia, 2020
AbstractBackgroundDuplication of the 17q21.3 region, leading to increased MAPT expression, causes a rare atypical early‐onset dementia (EOD) mimicking Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) clinical presentation. Since our initial report in 2016, the same duplication has been identified in additional patients including 2 progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) patients.

The novel MAPT mutation K298E:mechanisms of mutant tau toxicity, brain pathology and tau expression in induced fibroblast-derived neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is the one of the most frequent neurodegenerative disorders characterized by behavioral and executive impairment, language disorders and motor dysfunction.

MAPT mutations, tauopathy, and mechanisms of neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yesLaboratory Investigation, 2019
In multiple neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), a prominent pathological feature is the aberrant aggregation and inclusion formation of the microtubule-associated protein tau. Because of the pathological association, these disorders are often referred to as tauopathies.

Regulation of human MAPT gene expression [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2015
The number of known pathologies involving deregulated Tau expression/metabolism is increasing. Indeed, in addition to tauopathies, which comprise approximately 30 diseases characterized by neuronal aggregation of hyperphosphorylated Tau in brain neurons, this protein has also been associated with various other pathologies such as cancer, inclusion body

The Role of MAPT Haplotype H2 and Isoform 1N/4R in Parkinsonism of Older Adults. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Recently, we have shown that the Parkinson's disease (PD) susceptibility locus MAPT (microtubule associated protein tau) is associated with parkinsonism in older adults without a clinical diagnosis of PD.

Dissection of the genetics of Parkinson's disease identifies an additional association 5' of SNCA and multiple associated haplotypes at 17q21. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 1705 Parkinson's disease (PD) UK patients and 5175 UK controls, the largest sample size so far for a PD GWAS.

Retromer regulates the lysosomal clearance of MAPT/tau [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2020
The macroautophagy/autophagy-lysosome axis enables the clearance and degradation of cytoplasmic components including protein aggregates, damaged organelles and invading pathogens. Protein aggregation and lysosomal system dysfunction in the brain are common features of several late-onset neurological disorders including Alzheimer disease.

Conserved gene signatures shared among MAPT mutations reveal defects in calcium signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Introduction: More than 50 mutations in the MAPT gene result in heterogeneous forms of frontotemporal lobar dementia with tau inclusions (FTLD-Tau). However, early pathogenic events that lead to disease and the degree to which they are common across MAPT
