Tau pathology in frontal cortex as showed with the AT8 antibody. a APPswe mutation carriers show AT8 immunoreactivity in neurofibrillary tangles (arrow), pretangles (asterisk), neuropil threads and dystrophic neurites around amyloid plaques (small arrow). b AT8 immunohistochemistry revealed diffuse cytoplasmic tau immunoreactivity in neurons (pretangles, asterisk) and astrocytic plaques (#) in CBD patients, while c PSP patients show AT8 immunoreactivity in pretangles (asterisk) and tufted astrocytes (arrowhead). d No AT8 immunoreactivity was detected in control individuals. Scale bar: 50 μm
