EGCG impedes human Tau aggregation and interacts with Tau
Abstract Tau aggregation and accumulation is a key event in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. Inhibition of Tau aggregation is therefore a potential therapeutic strategy to ameliorate the disease. Phytochemicals are being highlighted as potential aggregation inhibitors. Epigallocatechin-3-gal...
