A single ultrasensitive assay for detection and discrimination of tau aggregates of Alzheimer and Pick diseases
Abstract Multiple neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by aggregation of tau molecules. Adult humans express six isoforms of tau that contain either 3 or 4 microtubule binding repeats (3R or 4R tau). Different diseases involve preferential aggregation of 3R (e.g Pick disease), 4R (e.g. progr...
