Antibodies against conformationally abnormal forms of tau protein present in Alzheimer's disease tissue

摘要

The invention relates to antibodies with a specificity to an abnormally truncated form of tau protein, which is conformationally different from normal tau, and does not bind to normal tau protein, conformationally different tau proteins ("tauons") and diagnostic and therapeutical aspects in relation to Alzheimer's disease and related tauopathies.
