## Abstract A characteristic hallmark of Alzheimer's disease brain is the presence of hyperphosphorylated tau; however, the mechanisms responsible for the aberrant tau phosphorylation are unknown. Recently, it has been shown that apoptoticβlike processes may be involved in some of the neuronal loss
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), a family of proteins collectively named tau are displaced from their normal association with microtubules and are found in in a hyperphosphorylated state deposited into paired helical filaments (PHFs). PHFs are the hallmark cytoskeletal pathology of the disease, and the
