Leveraging amino acid sensors as therapeutic targets for tauopathies and related dementias

Abstract

Abstract Background Tauopathies including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) comprise of over 27 neurodegenerative diseases. Our group has uncovered a unique interaction between uncoupling of amino acid sensors and tauopathies. L‐Arginine metabolism impacts multiple processes that seemingly show considerable influence upon tau biology. Several protein sensors have been identified that sense arginine within the lysosomal lumen, cytoplasm and signal to …
