P2RX7 inhibitor suppresses exosome secretion and disease phenotype in P301S tau transgenic mice

Abstract Background Neuronal accumulation of misfolded microtubule-associated protein tau is a hallmark of neuropathology in Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, and other tauopathies, and has been a therapeutic target. Microglia can spread tau pathology by secreting tau-containing exosomes...
