Microtubule-associated protein tau in murine kidney: role in podocyte architecture

Abstract: Tau is a cytoskeletal protein that is expressed mainly in neurons and is involved in several cellular processes, such as microtubule stabilization, axonal maintenance, and transport. Altered tau metabolism is related to different tauopathies being the most important Alzheimer’s disease where aberrant hyperphosphorylated and aggregated tau is found in the central nervous system. Here, we have analyzed that function in kidney by using tau knockout mice generated by integrating GFP-encoding cDNA into exon 1 of MA… Show more

“…Next, the protein concentration of each homogenate was determined by the Bradford method [ 12 ], using the BCA test (Thermo Fisher). Finally, the SDS-PAGE buffer used in [ 9 ] was added to the protein extracts obtained. The extracts were boiled in a thermoblock at 100°C for 5 min.…”

“…Upon systemic dosing, class-related adverse effects have been reported due to accumulation of ASO in the kidney tubule. 45 Due to tau expression in glomeruli and regulation of kidney metabolism, 51 further evaluation of accumulation of ASO-001933 in kidney may be warranted; however, the risk of peripheral side effects is expected to be low when ASO is delivered directly and infrequently into the CNS. Accumulation at the site of administration in the spinal cord may also require further evaluation in nonclinical species.…”

“…Characterization of Tau KO mice has revealed metabolic, cognitive, and motor dysfunction in mice homozygous for the MAPT gene deletion, depending on the age and strain of the mice. 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 Few, if any, studies report adverse phenotypes in mice heterozygous for the MAPT deletion, indicating that 50% loss of wild-type transcript is anticipated to be safe in humans. One caveat to interpreting such studies is the use of a constitutive deletion of MAPT from birth, which differs from the intended therapeutic approach.…”
