Oxidative Stress in Tauopathies: From Cause to Therapy

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Oxidative stress (OS) is the result of an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the antioxidant capacity of cells. Due to its high oxygen demand, the human brain is highly susceptible to OS and, thus, it is not a surprise ...

Sex differences for clinical presentations and co-pathologies in four-repeat tauopathies [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences
Background Four-repeat (4R)-tauopathies cause variable clinical profiles leading to clinical misdiagnosis. While sex differences are reported in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Lewy body disease (LBD), and clinically-defined frontotemporal dementia (FTD ...

Axonal Degeneration in Tauopathies: Disease Relevance and Underlying Mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Tauopathies are a diverse group of diseases featuring progressive dying-back neurodegeneration of specific neuronal populations in association with accumulation of abnormal forms of the microtubule-associated protein tau.

Early-Life Environment Influence on Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
With the expand of the population’s average age, the incidence of neurodegenerative disorders has dramatically increased over the last decades. Alzheimer disease (AD) which is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disease is mostly sporadic and primarily ...

DNA Methylation in Genetic and Sporadic Forms of Neurodegeneration: Lessons from Alzheimer’s, Related Tauopathies and Genetic Tauopathies

open access: yesCells, 2021
Genetic and sporadic forms of tauopathies, the most prevalent of which is Alzheimer’s Disease, are a scourge of the aging society, and in the case of genetic forms, can also affect children and young adults.

Impaired Glucose Homeostasis in a Tau Knock-In Mouse Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia. While impaired glucose homeostasis has been shown to increase AD risk and pathological loss of tau function, the latter has been suggested to contribute to the emergence of the glucose ...

Tauopathies: new perspectives and challenges

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2022
Background Tauopathies are a class of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by neuronal and/or glial tau-positive inclusions. Main body Clinically, tauopathies can present with a range of phenotypes that include cognitive/behavioral-disorders ...

Specific post-translational modifications of soluble tau protein distinguishes Alzheimer’s disease and primary tauopathies

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Tau protein aggregates in several neurodegenerative disorders, referred to as tauopathies. The tau isoforms observed in post mortem human brain aggregates is used to classify tauopathies.

Cellular and pathological heterogeneity of primary tauopathies

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2021
Microtubule-associated protein tau is abnormally aggregated in neuronal and glial cells in a range of neurodegenerative diseases that are collectively referred to as tauopathies.

Tau Stabilizes Chromatin Compaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
An extensive body of literature suggested a possible role of the microtubule-associated protein Tau in chromatin functions and/or organization in neuronal, non-neuronal, and cancer cells. How Tau functions in these processes remains elusive.
