abstract = {Mislocalization and aggregation of the axonal protein tau
are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies.
Here, we studied the relationship between tau aggregation,
loss of spines and neurons, and reversibility by aggregation
inhibitors. To this end we established an in vitro model of
tauopathy based on regulatable transgenic hippocampal
organotypic slice cultures prepared from mice expressing
proaggregant Tau repeat domain with mutation ΔK280
(Tau(RD)ΔK). Transgene expression was monitored by a
bioluminescence reporter assay. We observed abnormal tau
phosphorylation and mislocalization of exogenous and
endogenous tau into the somatodendritic compartment. This
was paralleled by a reduction of dendritic spines, altered
dendritic spine morphology, dysregulation of Ca(++) dynamics
and elevated activation of microglia. Neurotoxicity was
mediated by Caspase-3 activation and correlated with the
expression level of proaggregant Tau(RD)ΔK. Finally, tau
aggregates appeared in areas CA1 and CA3 after three weeks
in vitro. Neurodegeneration was relieved by aggregation
inhibitors or by switching off transgene expression. Thus
the slice culture model is suitable for monitoring the
development of tauopathy and the therapeutic benefit of
antiaggregation drugs.},
