Astrocytic PYGM attenuates tau pathology by promoting lactate-mediated neuroprotection. [PDF]

open access: yesAlzheimers Dement
Abstract INTRODUCTION Tauopathies are characterized by hyperphosphorylated tau accumulation and neurodegeneration. Although astrocytic metabolism is known to support neuronal health, the role of astrocytic glycogen metabolism, particularly the glycogenolytic enzyme PYGM (glycogen phosphorylase, muscle associated), in tauopathies remains unclear ...

Distinct Lysosomal Network Protein Profiles in Parkinsonian Syndrome Cerebrospinal Fluid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundClinical diagnosis of parkinsonian syndromes like Parkinson's disease (PD), corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is hampered by overlapping symptomatology and lack of diagnostic biomarkers, and definitive ...

Progressive tauopathy disrupts breathing stability and chemoreflexes during presumptive sleep in mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Rationale: Although sleep apnea occurs in over 50% of individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) or related tauopathies, little is known concerning the potential role of tauopathy in the pathogenesis of sleep apnea.

Early alterations of neurovascular unit in the retina in mouse models of tauopathy

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2021
The retina, as the only visually accessible tissue in the central nervous system, has attracted significant attention for evaluating it as a biomarker for neurodegenerative diseases.

Sex-Related Motor Deficits in the Tau-P301L Mouse Model

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
The contribution of mouse models for basic and translational research at different levels is important to understand neurodegenerative diseases, including tauopathies, by studying the alterations in the corresponding mouse models in detail.

Pneumonia initiates a tauopathy [PDF]

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2021
Abstract Pneumonia causes short‐ and long‐term cognitive dysfunction in a high proportion of patients, although the mechanism(s) responsible for this effect are unknown. Here, we tested the hypothesis that pneumonia‐elicited cytotoxic amyloid and tau variants: (1) are present in the circulation during infection; (2) lead to impairment

Isoflurane anesthesia precipitates tauopathy and upper airways dysfunction in pre-symptomatic Tau.P301L mice: Possible implication for neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
The postoperative cognitive decline resulting from volatile anesthesia is gaining acceptance as a major health problem. The common anesthetic isoflurane is suspected to precipitate neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease by unknown mechanisms.

Prolonged tau clearance and stress vulnerability rescue by pharmacological activation of autophagy in tauopathy neurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Disruption of autophagy function in cellular and animal models of tauopathy increases tau aggregation. Here, the authors describe a small-molecule screen to identify compounds that promote autophagy clearance of tau and rescue disease-relevant phenotypes

Loss of vesicular dopamine release precedes tauopathy in degenerative dopaminergic neurons in a Drosophila model expressing human tau. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
While a number of genome-wide association studies have identified microtubule-associated protein tau as a strong risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), little is known about the mechanism through which human tau can predispose an individual to this ...
