Tau pathology reprograms glucose metabolism to support glutamatergic activity and excitatory imbalance
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not only characterized by amyloid-beta (Aβ) and tau pathology, but also by early and progressive disruptions in metabolism. Neuronal excitability is tightly coupled with me...
