Early Tau pathology involving the septo-hippocampal pathway in a Tau transgenic model: relevance to Alzheimer's disease.

abstract：:Today, the most reliable diagnosis for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the post mortem identification of amyloid plaques, consisting of the Amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptide, (and neurofibrillary tangles) in the brain of the patient. Great efforts are being made to identify reliable biomarkers for AD that are suitable for mini...
