Distribution of spleen tyrosine kinase and tau phosphorylated at tyrosine 18 in a mouse model of tauopathy and in the human hippocampus.

CONCLUSION: Syk appears unlikely to be the major kinase that phosphorylates tyrosine 18 of tau in tauopathy. It possibly phosphorylates tyrosine 18 of tau and regulates other tau kinases in neurons with a fibrillary tau pathology. PMID: 28919467 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
