What mechanisms drive the formation of disease-specific tau-positive glial inclusions in PSP, CBD, and PiD?

OPEN

The abstract describes distinctive morphological patterns of glial inclusions across tauopathies but provides no mechanistic explanation for why different diseases produce different inclusion types. Understanding these mechanisms could reveal fundamental disease-specific pathogenic processes and inform targeted therapeutic approaches.
