Novelty‐like activation of locus coeruleus protects against deleterious human pretangle tau effects while stress‐inducing activation worsens its effects

Abstract The earliest abnormality associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the presence of persistently phosphorylated pretangle tau in locus coeruleus (LC) neurons. LC neuron numbers and fiber density are positive predictors of cognition prior to death. Using an animal model of LC pretangle...
