Spread of pathological tau proteins through communicating neurons in human Alzheimer's disease
Tau is a hallmark pathology of Alzheimer's disease, and animal models have suggested that
tau spreads from cell to cell through neuronal connections, facilitated by β-amyloid (A β). We …

The complexity of tau in Alzheimer's disease
NN Naseri, H Wang, J Guo, M Sharma, W Luo - Neuroscience letters, 2019 - Elsevier
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by two major pathological lesions in the brain,
amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) composed mainly of amyloid-β (Aβ) …

Functional brain architecture is associated with the rate of tau accumulation in Alzheimer's disease
In Alzheimer's diseases (AD), tau pathology is strongly associated with cognitive decline.
Preclinical evidence suggests that tau spreads across connected neurons in an activity …
