  1. Tau Mediates Synergistic Influence of Vascular Risk and Aβ on Cognitive Decline

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 67 out of 100. Annals of neurology 2022-08-13 Brain scans and imaging

    Vascular risks interact with subthreshold levels of Aβ to promote cognitive decline, partially by accelerating early neocortical tau accumulation.

  2. Synergistic Association between Plasma Aβ1-42 and p-tau in Alzheimer's Disease but Not in Parkinson's Disease or Frontotemporal Dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 53 out of 100. ACS chemical neuroscience 2021-04-07 Biomarkers

    Beta-amyloid (Aβ 1-42 ) triggers the phosphorylation of tau protein in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the relationship between phosphorylated tau (p-tau) and Aβ 1-42 in the blood is not elucidated.
