Guerreiro et al., 2010 |
| L266V |
Frontotemporal Dementia Spectrum : Pathogenic | Substitution | Substitution | Missense | Coding | Exon 9 | Severe atrophy of the frontal and temporal lobes; Extensive neuronal loss and gliosis; Many tau-positive inclusions, including Pick bodies (3R tau), some with PICALM, and Tau-positive argyrophilic astrocytes with stout filaments and round or irregular argyrophilic inclusions (4R tau). |
Decreased rate and extent of tau-induced microtubule assembly; 3R isoform-specific increase in tau self-assembly. Increased levels of exon 10+ tau RNA and soluble 4R tau, but no change in splicing assay. |
