Interaction of tau with the RNA-Binding Protein TIA1 Regulates tau Pathophysiology and Toxicity
Summary: Dendritic mislocalization of microtubule associated protein tau is a hallmark of tauopathies, but the role of dendritic tau is unknown. We now report that tau interacts with the RNA-binding protein (RBP) TIA1 in brain tissue, and we present the ...

Tau drives translational selectivity by interacting with ribosomal proteins
There is a fundamental gap in understanding the consequences of tau–ribosome interactions. Tau oligomers and filaments hinder protein synthesis in vitro, and they associate strongly with ribosomes in vivo.

Tau Protein Interaction Partners and Their Roles in Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Tauopathies
Tau protein plays a critical role in the assembly, stabilization, and modulation of microtubules, which are important for the normal function of neurons and the brain.

The Neurotoxic Role of Extracellular Tau Protein [PDF]
Tauopathies are a class of neurodegenerative diseases associated with the microtubule-associated protein tau, with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) being the most prevalent related disorder. Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) are one of the neuropathological hallmarks present in the brains of AD patients.

NMR Studies of Tau Protein in Tauopathies [PDF]
Tauopathies, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), are the most troublesome of all age-related chronic conditions, as there are no well-established disease-modifying therapies for their prevention and treatment. Spatio-temporal distribution of tau protein pathology correlates with cognitive decline and severity of the disease, therefore, tau protein has ...

DnaJC7 specifically regulates tau seeding
Neurodegenerative tauopathies are caused by accumulation of toxic tau protein assemblies. This appears to involve template-based seeding events, whereby tau monomer changes conformation and is recruited to a growing aggregate.

Proteinopathy, oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction: cross talk in alzheimer’s disease and parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are two common neurodegenerative diseases of the elderly people that have devastating effects in terms of morbidity and mortality.

Selective clearance of aberrant tau proteins and rescue of neurotoxicity by transcription factor EB
Accumulating evidence implicates impairment of the autophagy‐lysosome pathway in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recently discovered, transcription factor EB (TFEB) is a molecule shown to play central roles in cellular degradative processes.

The role of p38 MAPK and its substrates in neuronal plasticity and neurodegenerative disease [PDF]
A significant amount of evidence suggests that the p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling cascade plays a crucial role in synaptic plasticity and in neurodegenerative diseases.
