LRP1-Dependent Tau Uptake Disruption

**Overview** LRP1 (Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1) functions as a critical gateway receptor mediating the cellular internalization of pathological tau species in Alzheimer's disease. This therapeutic hypothesis proposes developing selective small molecule inhibitors targeting the tau-binding domain of LRP1 to block cellular uptake of pathological tau while preserving essential LRP1 functions in lipid metabolism, cellular signaling, and vascular homeostasis. The strategy addr...
