#Tau Associated MAPT Gene Increases Risk for Alzheimer's disease A international team of scientists, led by researchers at the University of California,
San diego School of medicine, has identified the microtubule associated-protein protein tau (MAPT) gene as increasing the risk for developing Alzheimer disease (AD).
the role of the tau-associated MAPT gene is said still unclear Rahul S. Desikan, MD,
and more likely to experience increased brain atrophy than non-carriers. his study demonstrates that tau deposits in the brains of Alzheimer disease subjects are not just a consequence of the disease,
since Alois Alzheimer time that both plaques (with amyloid) and tangles (of tau) are key features of Alzheimer pathology,
Until this year no one had shown convincingly that the MAPT (tau) gene altered the risk of AD and this,
combined with the greater ease of imaging amyloid in life, lead some researchers to postulate that tau changes were secondary to amyloid changes.
The recent association of genetic variation in the MAPT gene with AD risk and the emerging availability of tau imaging are now leading to a recognition that perhaps tau changes are key in the pathophysiologic pathway of AD

According to TAU doctoral student and research team member Dr. Lilach Bareket there are already medical devices that attempt to treat visual impairment by sending sensory signals to the brain.

and tau when it starts to build up it would in principle ensure (if it worked efficiently) that these products are allowed not to accumulate excessively in the brain. nce these proteins build up they can form aggregated plaques,
"Our current study suggests one mechanism at play is that a unique and rare type of tau has the properties we were looking for-it is released from neurons,
"Previous research has shown that tau tangles first appear in a structure located deep within the brain called the entorhinal cortex,
Several 2013 studies from Hyman's group and others showed the movement of a mutant form of tau between brain structures and resultant neurodegeneration in a mouse model.
only 1 percent of the tau in those samples was taken up by the neurons. The tau proteins that were taken up were high molecular weight-meaning that a number of smaller proteins are bound together into a larger molecule-soluble,
and studded with a large number of phosphate molecules, a known characteristic of the tau in Alzheimer's-associated tangles.
The process by which this version of tau passes between neurons was illustrated using a microfluidic device developed at the MGH Biomems Resource Center.
The team found that applying this rare form of tau from the brains of the mouse model to neurons in the first chamber resulted in the protein's being taken up by those neurons and
A few days later, tau was detected at the end of axons extending from the second to the third chamber,
Removal of tau from the first chamber did not cause it to disappear from the second chamber,
Additional experiments with tau from the brains of Alzheimer's patients confirmed that the high-molecular-weight
and uptake of this form of tau is an important step in the spread of disease from one brain region to another,
raising little hope among those who favor the tau theory. This makes the announcement in Nature Medicine that salsalate inhibits
and reverses the acetylation of tau particularly significant. Dr. Li Gan of Gladstone Institutes found evidence that acetylated tau is particularly damaging,
impeding the capacity of neurons to avoid the buildup of tau. Gan sought a drug that would prevent acetylization from occurring."
"We identified for the first time a pharmacological approach that reverses all aspects of tau toxicity, "said Gan in a statement."
"Remarkably, the profound protective effects of salsalate were achieved even though it was administered after disease onset, indicating that it may be an effective treatment option."
Tau buildup is observed also in rarer conditions, including progressive supranuclear palsy and frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
Resistance is useless One of the reasons optics has the potential to be faster is that it doesn have the limitation of the RC time constant, also known as tau,
