Abstract

Protein misfolding and neurodegenerative diseases.

Highlights

  • Tau oligomers may play an important neurotoxic role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD)

  • Received 4 February 2014; Accepted 4 February 2014; Published 31 March 2014. This special issue includes fifteen reviews and two original research articles by leading scientists in the fields of neuropathology, biochemistry, and cell biology, dealing with the role of protein aggregation and prion-like propagation of protein misfolding in neurodegenerative diseases
