12. For the three conditions, FRAP analysis revealed a similar mobility in dendrites compared with axons; however, Tau-mEOS2 was less mobile than hWT-Tau and hP301L-Tau and the mobile fraction was smaller, possibly reflecting less efficient microtubule binding of Tau when over-expressed. Together, our study presents Tau-mEOS2 mice as a novel tool for the study of Tau in a physiological and a pathological context. PMID: 27378256

37. Data suggest that a switch in post-translational processing of Tau from acetylation at Lys321 to phosphorylation at Ser324 coordinately regulates Tau aggregation and may be relevant in tauopathy and Alzheimer disease; acetylation/phosphorylation of Tau appears to be controlled by Hdac6 (histone deacetylase 6 protein).

46. Results may provide support for the hypothesis that enhanced expression of tau following lipopolysaccharide administration is a protective measure by hippocampal neurons to compensate for the loss of the microtubule-stabilizing protein due to phosphorylation.
