Glutamatergic nervous system degeneration in a C. elegans TauA152T tauopathy model involves pathways of excitotoxicity and Ca2+ dysregulation

Mutations in the gene encoding Tau (MAPT-microtubule-associated protein tau) cause a group of neurodegenerative diseases called tauopathies. A recently identified Tau variant, p.A152T, has been reported as a risk factor for frontotemporal dementia-related disorders and Alzheimer disease. However, th...
