  1. Anti-Tau Monoclonal Antibodies Derived from Soluble and Filamentous Tau Show Diverse Functional Properties in vitro and in vivo

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2018-01-01 Drug development

    The tau spreading hypothesis provides rationale for passive immunization with an anti-tau monoclonal antibody to block seeding by extracellular tau aggregates as a disease-modifying strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and potentially other tauopathies.

  2. Ubiquitin-immunoreactive filamentous inclusions in anterior horn cells of Guamanian and non-Guamanian amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Acta neuropathologica 1990-01-01 Drug development

    Immunohistochemical studies with an antibody to ubiquitin revealed the presence of filamentous inclusions in spinal anterior horn cells in all of six patients with Guamanian amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and one of six cases of parkinsonism-dementia complex (PD) on Guam.
