How do tau isoform alterations specifically determine glial inclusion morphology and disease phenotype?

OPEN

The authors suggest that distinctive glial lesions reflect alterations in tau isoform composition and cellular expression, but the specific relationships remain unclear. This knowledge gap prevents understanding of how tau variants drive disease-specific pathology and limits development of isoform-targeted therapies.
