Tau Propagation as a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Target for Dementia: Potentials and Unanswered Questions
A unique clinical course of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), beginning with memory deficit as the earliest symptom, is well-correlated with a progressive pattern of intracellular aggregates of tau (neurofibrillary tangles), which spread from the medial temporal lobe to other brain areas in a stereotypical...
