Insulin dysfunction induces in vivo tau hyperphosphorylation through distinct mechanisms.
Hyperphosphorylated tau is the major component of paired helical filaments in neurofibrillary tangles found in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains, and tau hyperphosphorylation is thought to be a critical event in the pathogenesis of the disease. The large majority of AD cases is late onset and sporadic in origin, with aging as the most important risk factor. Insulin resistance, impaired glucose to...
متن کاملHyperphosphorylation results in tau dysfunction in DNA folding and protection.
Hyperphosphorylation of tau occurs in preclinical and clinical stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and hyperphosphorylated tau is the main constituent of the paired helical filaments in the brains of mild cognitive impairment and AD patients. While most of the work described so far focused on the relationship between hyperphosphorylation of tau and microtubule disassembly as well as axonal tran...
متن کاملFormaldehyde induces hyperphosphorylation and polymerization of Tau protein both in vitro and in vivo.
BACKGROUND Chronic formaldehyde exposure leads to memory impairment and abnormal elevation of endogenous formaldehyde has been found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. Hyperphosphorylated Tau protein with subsequent aggregates as neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) is one of the typical pathological characteristics in AD brains. The mechanism underlying abnormally elevated concentra...
متن کاملInsulin deprivation induces PP2A inhibition and tau hyperphosphorylation in hTau mice, a model of Alzheimer’s disease-like tau pathology
Abnormally hyperphosphorylated tau aggregated as intraneuronal neurofibrillary tangles is one of the two neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The majority of AD cases are sporadic with numerous environmental, biological and genetic risks factors. Interestingly, insulin dysfunction and hyperglycaemia are both risk factors for sporadic AD. However, how hyperglycaemia and insul...
متن کاملAbnormal tau induces cognitive impairment through two different mechanisms: synaptic dysfunction and neuronal loss.
The hyperphosphorylated microtubule-associated protein tau is present in several neurodegenerative diseases, although the causal relationship remains elusive. Few mouse models used to study Alzheimer-like dementia target tau phosphorylation. We created an inducible pseudophosphorylated tau (Pathological Human Tau, PH-Tau) mouse model to study the effect of conformationally modified tau in vivo....
