Populations of Tau Conformers Drive Prion-like Strain Effects in Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias

Recent findings of diverse populations of prion-like conformers of misfolded tau protein expand the prion concept to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and monogenic frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD)-MAPT P301L, and suggest that distinct strains of misfolded proteins drive the phenotypes and progressio...
