a(HBP:AβOs) increases deg(a(MESH:Neurites)) View Subject | View Object

Recently, it has been shown that soluble Ab oligomers isolated from AD cortex can induce tau hyperphosphorylation at AD-relevant epitopes and subsequent neuritic degeneration (Jin et al. 2011). PubMed:22908190

p(HGNC:APP, var("?")) negativeCorrelation act(a(MESH:Neurites)) View Subject | View Object

Similar neuritic dystrophy eventually develops in all forms of AD and in mouse AD models where only FAD-causingmutant APP is overexpressed. PubMed:22908190

p(HGNC:PSEN1, var("?")) decreases act(a(MESH:Neurites)) View Subject | View Object

These observations suggest how PS1 mutations, which impede lysosomal acidification (Lee et al. 2010), may markedly accelerate and amplify neuritic dystrophy in AD PubMed:22908190

p(HGNC:MAPT) increases a(MESH:Neurites) View Subject | View Object

In addition, tau seems to be essential for axonal elongation and maturation, as knockdown of tau in cultured rat neurons inhibits neurite formation, whereas overexpression of tau promotes the formation of neurites even in non-neuronal cells1 PubMed:26631930
