ATRA prevents the accumulation of amyloid plaques and APP processing into Ab through downregulation of Cdk5 in APP/PS1 mice. These results suggested that the administration of ATRA inhibited activity of Cdk5 and GSK3b and attenuated the formation of p-tau aggregation, including p-CRMP2 and p-WAVE1 in the 33Tg mouse brain.

First, we verified the colocalization of p-WAVE1 and pCRMP2 with aggregated hyperphosphorylated tau in the hippocampus at 23 months of age. Biochemical analysis revealed the inclusion of p-WAVE1, p-CRMP2, and tau in the sarkosyl-insoluble fractions of hippocampal homogenates

Evidence 42ac9297d9

We found that the immunoreactivities of p-WAVE1 and pCRMP2 colocalized with p-tau and were located near peripheral amyloid plaques in the cerebral cortices of 23- month-old 33Tg (Fig. 3A) and 17-month-old APPswe/ PS1DE9 (Fig. 3B) mice.
