Newest firstTau aggregation into amyloid fibrils is linked to the development of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). The molecular processes driving aggregation in disease are still being uncovered, highlighting the need for innovative tools to study aggregation reactions. Here, we introduce FibrilPaint1 as a tool to measure the size of Tau amyloid fibrils in fluids, from early aggregation stages t…
Open article record in new tab ↗The abnormal deposition and intercellular propagation of disease-specific protein play a central role in the pathogenesis of many neurodegenerative disorders. Recent studies share the common observation that the formation of protein oligomers and subsequent pathological filaments is an essential step for the disease. Synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) or multiple sy…
Open article record in new tab ↗Tauopathies are a subset of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by abnormal tau inclusions. Specifically, three-repeat tau and four-repeat tau in Alzheimer's disease, three-repeat tau in Pick's disease (PiD) and four-repeat tau in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) form amyloid-like fibrous structures that accumulate in neurons and/or glial cells. Amplification and cell-t…
Open article record in new tab ↗Tauopathies are characterized by abnormal accumulation of tau protein in neurons and glia. In Alzheimer's disease (AD), tau aggregates in neurons, while in corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), tau also aggregates in astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. We previously demonstrated that human CBD and PSP tauopathy lysates (CBD-tau and PSP-tau) contain distinct tau strains that propaga…
