Cerebral hypoperfusion reduces tau accumulation by Ghupurjan Gheni, Mitsuru Shinohara, Masami Masuda‐Suzukake, Akihiko Shindo, Atsushi Watanabe, Kaori Kawai, Guojun Bu, Hidekazu Tomimoto, Masato Hasegawa, Naoyuki Sato

“…An animal model demonstrates that chronic cerebral hypoperfusion reduces tau pathology, which was observed in not only neurons but also astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, we found that astrocytes and microglia were activated in response to tau pathology and chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. …”
