Biochem/physiol Actions

Reacts with Tau, caspase cleaved (truncated at Asp421). The antibody shows no reactivity with full length tau nor other tau C-terminal truncations. The antibody stains amyloid beta treated neurons and brain tissue in Alzheimer′s disease, more specifically it stains a subset of neurofibrillary tangles, tau-containing neuritic plaques and neuropil threads.

A recent study demonstrated the lack of beta-amyloid (Abeta) plaque formation and accumulation of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) in a triple transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (3xTg-AD) following overexpression of the anti-apoptotic protein, Bcl-2 (Rohn et al., J.

Recent evidence has suggested that truncation of tau protein at the caspase cleavage site D421 precedes hyperphosphorylation and may be necessary for the assembly of tau into filaments in Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies. Here we have investigated the time

Mouse models of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) are important for understanding how pathological signaling cascades change neural circuitry and with time interrupt cognitive function. Here, we introduce a non-genetic preclinical model for aging and show that it

Previous studies indicated that ethanol-induced neurodegeneration in postnatal day 7 (P7) mice, widely used as a model for the fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, was accompanied by glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta) and caspase-3 activation. Presently, we examined whether tau, a microtubule
