Unraveling the tau puzzle: a review of mechanistic targets and therapeutic interventions to prevent tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease

Figure 4. Therapeutic options to mediate intracellular uptake and extracellular release. (1) Competitive binding agents inhibit intracellular uptake via LAG3 and HSPGs[41,45,98-100]. Lysine modification on LRP1 inhibits LRP1-driven intracellular uptake[43]; (2) Tetrodotoxin and Tetanus toxin impair the extracellular release of pathologic tau from axon terminals by blocking the Na+/K+ ATPase and AMPAR pathways, respectively[46,47]. Created with BioRender.com. AMPAR: AMPA receptors; HSPG: heparan sulfate proteoglycan; LAG3: lymphocyte-activation gene 3; LRP1: lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1; TTX: tetrodotoxin.
