Neuronal tau species transfer to astrocytes and induce their loss according to tau aggregation state

چکیده
Abstract Deposits of different abnormal forms tau in neurons and astrocytes represent key anatomo-pathological features tauopathies. Although protein is highly enriched poorly expressed by astrocytes, the origin astrocytic still elusive. Here, we used innovative gene transfer tools to model tauopathies adult mouse brains investigate tau. We showed our adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based models Thy-Tau22 transgenic mice that pathology can emerge secondarily neuronal pathology. By designing an vivo reporter system, further demonstrated bidirectional exchanges species between astrocytes. then determined consequences accumulation on their survival displaying various status aggregation. Using stereological counting report that, as for neurons, soluble are toxic some subpopulations hippocampus, whereas aggregates does not affect survival. Thus, mere bystanders Our results strongly suggest may significantly contribute clinical symptoms.

From tau phosphorylation to tau aggregation: what about neuronal death?
Tau pathology is characterized by intracellular aggregates of abnormally and hyperphosphorylated tau proteins. It is encountered in many neurodegenerative disorders, but also in aging. These neurodegenerative disorders are referred to as tauopathies. Comparative biochemistry of the tau aggregates shows that they differ in both tau isoform phosphorylation and content, which enables a molecular c...
متن کاملTau protein and tau aggregation inhibitors.
Alzheimer disease is characterized by pathological aggregation of two proteins, tau and Abeta-amyloid, both of which are considered to be toxic to neurons. In this review we summarize recent advances on small molecule inhibitors of protein aggregation with emphasis on tau, with activities mediated by the direct interference of self-assembly. The inhibitors can be clustered in several compound c...

One of the main hallmarks of the fronto-temporal dementia with Parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17) is the accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles in the brain as an outcome of the aggregation of mutated tau protein. This process occurs due to a number of genetic mutations in the MAPT gene. One of these mutations is the ∆K280 mutation in the tau R2 repeat domain, which promotes the ag...
متن کاملCell-based Models To Investigate Tau Aggregation
Accumulation of abnormal tau aggregates in neuron is an important pathological signature in multiple neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease. Tau is a neuron specific microtubule-associated protein that regulates microtubule stability, which is critical for axonal outgrowth and synaptic plasticity. In a pathological condition, tau dissociates from microtubules and forms insolu...
