Peripheral immune priming fuels tau-linked neurodegeneration
In a tauopathy mouse model, dendritic cells prime T cells, which then infiltrate the brain and promote inflammation and neuronal loss. This immune pathway emerges as a critical contributor to tau-dependent damage, offering a new target for intervention.
