- Description
- This antibody recognizes an epitope near the C-terminal region (404-441 aa) of human tau. It reacts with all 7 isoforms of human tau (binding-competent and binding-incompetent), A68 (an abnormal phosphorylated derivative of tau), bovine tau, and human NeuroFibrillary Tangles (NFTs). Reactivity is independent of the state of tau phosphorylation. Some cross-reactivity with MAP2 is also observed. This antibody is suitable for immunohistochemical staining of Bouin's-fixed or alcohol-fixed, paraffin-embedded or frozen tissue sections.

- Fig. 1 Constructs used for microinjection and expression parameters of protein for full-length mutant and truncated tau. a The L66 cDNA construct contains human tau cDNA coding for the longest human CNS tau isoform (htau40; 441 amino acids) with the point mutations to make the amino acid changes P301S and G335D. b The L1 cDNA construct contains human tau cDNA coding for amino acid residues 296-390 with signal sequence and related sequences in murine Thy-1 expression cassette. c Immunoblot analysis of 6-month-old WT ( lane 1 ) and L66 ( lane 2 ) mouse brains with recombinant truncated dGAE ( lane 3 ) and full-length htau40 ( lane 4 ) for reference. The faint 25-kDa band seen in lane 1 was only seen with the wild-type mouse brain and was observed when the secondary anti-mouse antibody was used in the absence of primary tau antibody. The 70-kDa band reflects full-length mutant tau and is detected by all of the antibodies shown. Note that the 55-kDa band, that is not detected by the human-specific mAb 27/499, represents endogenous mouse tau. The position of markers indicates relative molecular mass ( M r ) in kDa. d Immunoblot characterisation of tau in 4-month-old L1 ( even numbers ) and WT mice ( odd numbers ). Protein extracts from whole-brain lysates were separated by SDS-PAGE and immunoblots stained with antibodies 7/51 and K9JA for epitopes within the repeat domain of tau. Immunoreactive bands at 12- and 18-kDa ( arrowheads ) were detected in L1 mice ( lanes 2 , 4 , 6 and 8

- Fig. 2 Tau immunohistochemistry of transgenic tau L66 ( a , b , e , f , i ) and L1 ( c , d , g , h ) mice. Tau immunoreactivity with mAb 7/51 is strong in L66 with prominent intracellular staining in the hilus/CA4 sectors of the hippocampus ( a ) and in other areas (see Fig. 4 ). In contrast, mAb AT8 immunoreactivity is seen more frequently in elderly mice with staining apparent in long processes of CA1 ( d ). Neurons in visual cortex ( g ) are stained differentially with both mAb 7/51 ( brown ) and AT8 ( red ). Amorphous intracellular tau immunoreactivity, visualised using mAb 7/51, in the hilus/CA4 of L1 mice ( b ) is much weaker than for L66, and absent from the corresponding region in WT mice ( c ). The presence of pS404 phospho-tau immunoreactivity was seen in hippocampus and cortex and was more intense for L1 late in life. At 3 and 9 months old, L1 and WT animals were similar. It was only at 15 months of age that a prominent difference between L1 and wild-type was observed, with CA1 labelling for pS404-Tau greater in L1 ( e ) than WT ( f ). The staining of neurons with this mAb indicates that there are granular accumulations of pS404-Tau immunoreactivity in long processes ( h , i ). Scale bars 50 um ( a , d ); 25 um ( e - g ); 20 um ( b , c ) and 10 um ( h , i )

- Fig. 4 Distribution of aggregated tau in L66 transgenic mice. a Staining for astrocytes and axons in the cerebellum of L66 mice aged 6-7 months. a - i Cross-sections through the mid-cerebellar region and underlying brainstem stained for GFAP in L66 shows immunoreactivity within the cerebellar white matter (CW). Cellular staining for phospho-tau using mAb AT8 ( a-ii ) was identified in both the cerebellar cortex and in the deeper cerebellar nuclei ( a - iii , CN), but also some weak staining in processes running through the white matter, and non-specific immunoreactivity in the Purkinje cell layer (P). Deep nuclei were stained also with mAb 7/51, but no processes were immunopositive ( a - iv ). Axons stained darkly by the amino cupric silver stain indicate injury to axonal integrity in L66 mice ( a - v ). b Degeneration of fibres and expression of human tau in pons and ventral tegmentum. Axonal injury was observed in pons using amino cupric silver staining ( b - i ). While black arrows indicate scattered positivity for longitudinally oriented axons in tegmental regions, strong labelling of transverse fibres ( red arrows ) occurred in the cerebral peduncle. Somata/processes were also densely labelled for phospho-tau using AT8 ( b - ii ) in both pontine axons and cells ( red arrow ) and tegmental neurons ( arrowhead ). c Anterior thalamic expression of tau. Dense AT8 labelling ( c - i ) was observed in cells and axons of the ventrolateral thalamic nucleus (VL) and zona incerta (

- Fig. 5 Filamentous tau in L66. Electronmicroscopy of spinal cord from a WT and b L66 mice and c anti-tau immunoelectronmicroscopy of L66. Dense bundles of filaments were found in large neurons in L66 but not WT mice and these were immunodecorated with gold particles labelling tau. The lower panel of images are selected magnifications from the upper panel as indicated; scale 5 um ( solid bars ) and 0.5 um ( open bars ). Bielschowsky silver staining for tau aggregates was more abundant in cortical sections from L66 ( d ) than L36 ( e ) mice. In addition, Primulin-stained neurons provide further evidence of the formation of filamentous tau aggregates in cortical tissue from L66 ( f )

- Fig. 3 Phagocytosis of Tau oligomers and activation of microglia. a N9 microglia were incubated with extracellular Tau oligomers for 24 h to initiate phagocytosis. The immunostaining study analyzed the presence of A11 + microglia indicating the phenomenon of active internalization of oligomer overburden. b The number of A11+ microglia was equal in amount during the phagocytosis of hTau40 WT oligomers and fibrillar aggregates. c 3D localization studies have shown that the microglia have engulfed an adequate amount of Tau oligomers and low molecular weight aggregates (A11 staining) as compared to the untreated control group. d , e The quantification of total A11 intensity in microglia upon different Tau species treatment group and the A11 intensity per square area have defined the density of A11 fluorescence in treated microglia by ZEN 2.3 image analytical microscopic software. f , g Microglial activation is mediated by the peri-membrane localization of Ca 2+ binding adaptor protein Iba1 in the case of preformed Tau aggregate treatment while the oligomer-treated group showed an increased level of cytosolic localization of Iba1 in microglia. The levels of Iba1 were quantified by ZEN 2.3 image analysis software in N9 microglia treated with Tau species.
