摘要：
Significant advances have recently been made in understanding the nature of the Alzheimer paired helical filament. This appears to consist entirely of abnormally phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein Tau. Filaments resembling those found in Alzheimer's disease have been assembled in vitro from fragments of Tau protein spanning the microtubule-binding repeat region.
