Primary neuronal cultures were treated with glutamate to induce an increase of Tau immunoreactivity similar to that observed in Alzheimer's disease. The Tau profile of neurones in culture before and after exposure to glutamate was analyzed on immunoblots with anti-Tau, anti-paired helical filaments (PHF) and antibody specific for modified Tau. Differences were observed between treated and control cultures: glutamate induced a shift of immunodetection from the lowest to the highest molecular weight Tau isoform and an acidification of Tau proteins. However, these modifications are not exactly those observed in Alzheimer's disease since we were not able to detect 'Alzheimer-type' epitopes on Tau proteins after the glutamate exposure.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries

D002478 Cells, Cultured Cells propagated in vitro in special media conducive to their growth. Cultured cells are used to study developmental, morphologic, metabolic, physiologic, and genetic processes, among others. Cultured Cells,Cell, Cultured,Cultured Cell
D005971 Glutamates Derivatives of GLUTAMIC ACID. Included under this heading are a broad variety of acid forms, salts, esters, and amides that contain the 2-aminopentanedioic acid structure. Glutamic Acid Derivatives,Glutamic Acids,Glutaminic Acids
D000544 Alzheimer Disease A degenerative disease of the BRAIN characterized by the insidious onset of DEMENTIA. Impairment of MEMORY, judgment, attention span, and problem solving skills are followed by severe APRAXIAS and a global loss of cognitive abilities. The condition primarily occurs after age 60, and is marked pathologically by severe cortical atrophy and the triad of SENILE PLAQUES; NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLES; and NEUROPIL THREADS.

D016875 tau Proteins Microtubule-associated proteins that are mainly expressed in neurons. Tau proteins constitute several isoforms and play an important role in the assembly of tubulin monomers into microtubules and in maintaining the cytoskeleton and axonal transport. Aggregation of specific sets of tau proteins in filamentous inclusions is the common feature of intraneuronal and glial fibrillar lesions (NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLES; NEUROPIL THREADS) in numerous neurodegenerative disorders (ALZHEIMER DISEASE; TAUOPATHIES). tau Protein,Protein, tau,Proteins, tau
