Open AccessAstrocytic accumulation of tau fibrils isolated from Alzheimer’s disease brains induces inflammation, cell-to-cell propagation and neuronal impairment
Accumulating evidence highlights the involvement of astrocytes in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression. We have previously demonstrated that human iPSC-derived astrocytes ingest and modify synthetic tau fibril...

Open AccessAstrocytic uptake of neuronal corpses promotes cell-to-cell spreading of tau pathology
Tau deposits in astrocytes are frequently found in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other tauopathies. Since astrocytes do not express tau, the inclusions have been suggested to be of neuronal origin. However, the...
