p(HGNC:MAPT, pmod(HBP:nitration, Tyr, 18)) positiveCorrelation path(MESH:"Plaque, Amyloid")
This antibody detects nitrated tau in soluble preparations from both severe AD brains (Braak stage V, VI) and age-matched controls, suggesting that nitration at Tyr 18 may be linked to astrocyte activation, an early event associated with amyloid plaque formation
