Atypical role of proximal caspase-8 in truncated Tau-induced neurite regression and neuronal cell death
Abnormal Tau protein is known to be closely associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. Previously, we showed that Tau was cleaved by caspase-3 to generate the cleavage product lacking the C-terminus (ΔTau-1) during neuronal cell death. Here we characterized caspase-8-dependent neurotoxicity...
