Tau reduction prevents neuronal loss and reverses pathological tau deposition and seeding in mice with tauopathy
Open accessAbstract
Antisense oligonucleotides that reduce tau prevent neuronal loss and reverse tau deposition and seeding in a mouse model of tauopathy.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
In PS19 tauopathy mice, antisense oligonucleotide–mediated reduction of human tau prevented and reversed tau pathology, prevented hippocampal and neuronal loss, reduced tau seeding, improved nesting, and extended survival. In non-human primates, tau ASOs distributed throughout the CNS and lowered tau mRNA and protein, supporting investigation of tau-lowering therapy in human tauopathies.
Key findings
- TauASO-12 reduced human tau mRNA at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after pump implantation (two-way ANOVA p<0.0001; post-hoc 4wk p=0.0250, 8wk p=0.0448, 12wk p<0.0001) without significantly altering murine tau mRNA.
- In aged 9-month PS19 mice, TauASO-12 reduced sarkosyl-insoluble tau (p=0.006), high-molecular-weight tau oligomers (p=0.004), and phospho-tau (p=0.0104); AT8 pathology was lower than in 9-month starting mice (hippocampus p=0.028, whole brain p=0.011), and Thioflavin S pathology was reversed.
- Tau reduction prevented hippocampal volume loss (p=0.009), entorhinal cortex area loss (p<0.0001), and CA1 neuronal loss (DAPI/NeuN dual-positive cells p=0.005; cell size p<0.0001), and reversed tau seeding activity (9–12 month TauASO-12 vs starting 9 months p=0.044).
- TauASO-12 extended median survival from 312 to 348 days (Mantel-Cox p=0.0052) and improved nesting (nest score p=0.040; untorn nestlet weight p=0.014); in Cynomolgus monkeys, intrathecal ASO reduced tau mRNA/protein in brain, spinal cord, and CSF, with CSF tau correlating with hippocampal tau (p=0.01, R²=0.68).
Methods
- PS19 mice expressing mutant P301S human tau were treated with TauASO-12 or scrambled ASO via intracerebroventricular osmotic pumps at 30 μg/day for 28 days, in 6–9 month and 9–12 month cohorts, with non-transgenic littermate controls.
- Outcomes included qRT-PCR for human/murine tau mRNA, tau ELISA, sarkosyl-insoluble tau, SDD-AGE, AT8/Thioflavin S/GFAP/NeuN immunofluorescence, hippocampal volume and entorhinal cortex area, FRET flow cytometry tau seeding in HEK-293 cells, survival, and nestlet behavior.
- Cynomolgus monkeys received intrathecal lumbar bolus tau ASO at 10, 30, or 50 mg; brain, spinal cord, and CSF tau mRNA/protein were measured at 2, 5, or 6 weeks after initial dosing.
Limitations
- The paper states the study was restricted to the PS19 mouse model, which uses a mutated tau transgene expressed at high levels; effects may partly reflect artificially high mutant tau expression, an important caveat for AD patients without tau mutation or overexpression.
- The paper states that correlating mouse behavioral changes with human cognitive deficits is challenging, and it remains unclear how the observed benefits will translate to humans; the ASOs also need formal toxicology testing before human trials.
- Evident from the text: this is preclinical work with no human efficacy data, and some non-human primate groups were small (n=3–4 per treatment), limiting safety and dose-response conclusions.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
ANOVA degrees of freedom conflict with the reported sample sizes
MinorThe six duration-of-action groups contain 42 mice in total. A two-way ANOVA of these groups cannot have 43 residual degrees of freedom; with six groups, it would have 36.
“control [saline vehicle or 30μg/day (total 840μg) scrambled ASO] treatment (4wk n=10; 8wk n=5; 12wk n=8) or 30μg/day (total 840μg) TauASO-12 human tau reduction treatment (4wk n=3; 8wk n=5; 12wk n=11) for 28 days.”
“two-way ANOVA F1,43=22.96”
Primate ASO sequence is shorter than the stated modification layout

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
