Tau Inclusions in Alzheimer's, Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and Pick's Disease. A Speculation on How Differences in Backbone Polarization Underlie Divergent Pathways of Tau Aggregation
Tau-related dementias appear to involve specific to each disease aggregation pathways and morphologies of filamentous tau assemblies. To understand etiology of these differences, here we elucidate molecular mechanism of formation of tau PHFs based on the PMO theory of misfolding and aggregation of p...
