Acetylated tau inhibits chaperone-mediated autophagy and promotes tau pathology propagation in mice

The tau protein has been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders and can propagate from cell to cell. Here, the authors show that tau acetylation reduces its degradation by chaperone-mediated autophagy, causing re-routing to other autophagic pathways and increasing extracellular tau release.
