Pragmatic algorithm for visual assessment of 4-Repeat tauopathies in [18F]PI-2620 PET Scans

open access: yesNeuroImage
Aim: Standardized evaluation of [18F]PI-2620 tau-PET scans in 4R-tauopathies represents an unmet need in clinical practice. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of visual evaluation of [18F]PI-2620 images for diagnosing 4R-tauopathies and to ...

Signaling pathways and posttranslational modifications of tau in Alzheimer’s disease: the humanization of yeast cells

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2016
In the past decade, yeast have been frequently employed to study the molecular mechanisms of human neurodegenerative diseases, generally by means of heterologous expression of genes encoding the relevant hallmark proteins.

3D imaging of neuronal inclusions and protein aggregates in human neurodegeneration by multiscale x‐ray phase‐contrast tomography

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
x‐ray phase‐contrast tomography enabled three‐dimensional, label‐free visualization and quantification of protein aggregates in neurodegenerative diseases with isotropic submicrometer resolution. The study revealed distinct electron density patterns in Lewy bodies, Hirano bodies, granulovacuolar degeneration, and amyloid plaques, highlighting their ...

Alzheimer's disease and mixed pathologies as a hidden contributor to fatal hypothermia: A large‐scale forensic autopsy‐based study

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
We investigated neuropathological manifestations of hypothermia in 168 cases. Patients aged 65 years or more constituted 80% of the total cohort. Alzheimer's disease was the most common comorbidity, affecting 40% of all patients. Abstract There is a paucity of autopsy‐based studies providing detailed neuropathological characteristics of fatal ...

Physiological and Pathophysiological Implications of Synaptic Tau [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tauopathies encompass a broad range of neurodegenerative diseases featuring extensive neuronal death and cognitive decline. However, research over the past 30 years has failed to significantly advance our understanding of how tau causes dementia ...

Evidence for different seeding activities of misfolded tau in classical and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
The study analyzed the seeding activity of misfolded tau protein in Alzheimer's disease and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease patients and provides evidence for the existence of different tau assemblies supported by differences in cellular toxicity and morphology of thioflavin T‐positive real‐time quaking‐induced conversion products.

Oxidative stress-induced stress granules: a central link to protein aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Intracellular aggregation of proteins such as Tau, TDP43, FUS, prion protein, and α-synuclein is a major hallmark of many major neurodegenerative diseases. Aberrant stress granules (SGs) are emerging as key contributors to the nucleation of toxic protein

Roles of tau protein in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Tau is well established as a microtubule-associated protein in neurons. However, under pathological conditions, aberrant assembly of tau into insoluble aggregates is accompanied by synaptic dysfunction and neural cell death in a range of ...
