Tau exacerbates excitotoxic brain damage in an animal model of stroke
Neuronal excitotoxicity induced by aberrant excitation of glutamatergic receptors contributes to brain damage in stroke. Here we show that tau-deficient (tau-/-) mice are profoundly protected from excitotoxic brain damage and neurological deficits following experimental stroke, using a middle cerebr...
