Tau depletion diminishes vascular amyloid-related deficits in a mouse model of cerebral amyloid angiopathy
Open accessAbstract
INTRODUCTION: Tau is essential for amyloid beta (Aβ)–induced synaptic and cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD), making its downregulation a therapeutic target. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), a major vascular contributor to cognitive decline, affects over 90% of patients with AD. This study explores the impact of tau downregulation on CAA pathogenesis. METHODS: We crossed the Familial Danish Dementia mouse model (Tg‐FDD), which develops vascular amyloid, with tau‐null (mTau −/− ) mice to generate a CAA model lacking endogenous tau (Tg‐FDD/mTau −/− ). Behavioral, electrophysiological, histological, and transcriptomic analyses were performed. RESULTS: Tau depletion ameliorated motor and synaptic impairments, reduced vascular amyloid deposition, and prevented vascular damage. Tau ablation also mitigated astrocytic reactivity and neuroinflammation associated with vascular amyloid accumulation. CONCLUSION: These findings provide the first in vivo evidence of the beneficial effects of tau downregulation in a CAA mouse model, supporting tau reduction as a potential therapeutic strategy for patients with parenchymal and vascular amyloid deposition. Highlights: Tau ablation improves motor function and synaptic impair, reduces cerebrovascular amyloid deposits, and prevents vascular damage in a mouse model of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Tau reduction decreases astrocytic reactivity, alters neuroinflammatory gene expression, and enhances oligodendrocyte function, suggesting a protective role against neuroinflammation in CAA. These findings highlight tau reduction as a potential therapeutic strategy to mitigate CAA‐induced pathogenesis, with implications for treating patients with both parenchymal and vascular amyloid deposition.

Tg-FDD mice present motor impairment, vascular damage, astrocytic reactivity and altered inflammation pathways in a sex dependent manner, with males exhibiting stronger phenotype.
“Mice present motor impairment, vascular damage, astrocytic reactivity and altered inflammation pathways in a sex dependent manner, with males exhibiting stronger phenotype [85].”

The Results sections on motor strength, vascular damage, and astrocytic reactivity report reduced grip strength in Tg-FDD mice, while vascular damage and astrocytic reactivity were observed only in males. The inflammation Results report altered inflammatory genes and pathways, but that analysis included only males; the reported motor-strength findings also do not establish a stronger male phenotype. Thus, the source does not support applying the sex-dependent, stronger-in-males description to all four findings. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn the Tg-FDD;Mapt−/− model, oligodendrocyte function was restored to WT levels following tau ablation.
“In the Tg-FDD;Mapt−/− model, we previously showed that oligodendrocyte function was restored to WT levels following tau ablation [85].”

In the Results section on oligodendrocyte function (page unavailable), the paper says tau reduction recovered oligodendrocyte-related gene-expression alterations to wild-type levels. Its Discussion describes oligodendrocyte dysfunction as mitigated, but the cited evidence is gene expression, not a demonstration that oligodendrocyte function itself was fully restored to wild-type levels. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredTau ablation is beneficial in a mouse model of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), reducing vascular damage and improving behavioral outcomes.
“Moreover, we recently demonstrated that tau ablation is beneficial in a mouse model of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), reducing vascular damage and improving behavioral outcomes [85].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
