Untangling the association of amyloid-beta and tau with synaptic and axonal loss in Alzheimer's disease

Joana B. Pereira et al.

Summary: The study found that in early Alzheimer's disease, presynaptic and postsynaptic markers are elevated and associated with more severe amyloid-beta pathology, memory decline, and changes in the default mode network. In later disease stages, abnormal levels of neurofilament light chain were observed, correlated with more tau pathology and worse global cognition.

Increased neuronal activity in motor cortex reveals prominent calcium dyshomeostasis in tauopathy mice

Qian Wu et al.

Summary: Perturbed neuronal Ca2+ homeostasis is closely related to Alzheimer's disease, with abnormal activity observed in tauopathy mice compared to wild-type mice. The study also found that tau monoclonal antibody injections partially rescued Ca2+ activity abnormalities and decreased soluble pathological tau protein in the brain of tauopathy mice. These results suggest a causal link between neuronal Ca2+ dyshomeostasis and pathological tau protein, highlighting the potential of acute tau antibody treatment in correcting neuronal Ca2+ dysregulation.
