Pathogenic tau in the mouse locus coeruleus produces noradrenergic hyperactivity and neuropsychiatric phenotypes reminiscent of early Alzheimer’s disease

It is demonstrated that pTau triggers phenotypes reflective of LC-NE hyperactivity in the early stages of AD pathogenesis, laying the foundation for the development of LC-based disease-modifying therapies to address neuropsychiatric manifestations.
