It is also noteworthy that Abeta-induced tau protein phosphorylation in PC12 cells is inhibited not only by alpha7 agonists, as would be predicted from the role of alpha7 nAChRs in neuroprotection, but also by alpha-bungarotoxin (Hu et al., 2008), as might be predicted if the competition by alpha-bungarotoxin for the Abeta site blocked a direct action of Abeta on nAChRs. It is therefore possible that the toxicity of Abeta is mediated, at least in part, through a direct physical interaction between Abeta and nAChRs.
