Within the limits of our detection, neither monomer nor dimer was internalized (Fig. 5, A and B). By contrast, trimers and larger species were readily internalized, with trimer uptake being slightly less efficient (Fig. 5, A and B). We did not observe an upper limit of size in terms of uptake.

Only Tau RD oligomers of n 3 increased luciferase signal, defining these assemblies as the minimal size sufficient for spontaneous cell uptake and seeding (Fig. 6C). PubMed:25887395
Next we analyzed fractions for seeding activity in the P301S- Nluc/Cluc HEK293 cell lines by a split-luciferase complemen- tation assay, comparing AD and control brains. Trimers and larger BD Tau assemblies induced intracellular aggregation, but not monomer or dimer. PubMed:25887395
