A possible link between astrocyte activation and tau nitration in Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology has been characterized, in part, by the self-assembly of the tau molecule into neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). While different post-translational modifications have been identified that accelerate tau aggregation, nitration at tyrosine residues prevents or slow...
