Suppression of Tau-tubulin kinase 1 mitigates tau phosphorylation, and Aβ mediated neurotoxicity via altered kinase network.
Tau-tubulin kinase-1 (TTBK1) is a neuron-specific serine/threonine tau kinase that is highly expressed in the entorhinal and hippocampal regions and phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein tau at sites relevant to Alzheimer's disease (AD), thereby contributing to early tau pathology. Targeting TTBK1 can be a prom...
