The neuritic plaque facilitates pathological conversion of tau in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is pathologically characterized by the accumulation of neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles but it is not known whether the neuritic plaque is necessary to drive the conversion of wild-type tau. Here the authors developed a mouse model in which wild-type tau is conve...

| Sumario: | Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is pathologically characterized by the accumulation of neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles but it is not known whether the neuritic plaque is necessary to drive the conversion of wild-type tau. Here the authors developed a mouse model in which wild-type tau is converted into pathological tau in a neuritic plaque-dependent manner. |
