Tau in the normal physiological condition helps stabilize microtubules and transport. Tau aggregates due to various gene mutations, intracellular insults and abnormal post-translational modifications, phosphorylation being the most important one. Other modifications which alter the function of Tau protein are glycation, nitration, acetylation, methylation, oxidation, etc. In addition to forming intracellular aggregates, Tau pathology might spread in a prion-like manner as revealed by several in vitro and in vivo studies. The possible mechanism of Tau spread can be via bulk endocytosis of misfolded Tau species. The recent studies elucidating this mechanism have mainly focussed on the aggregation and spread of repeat domain of Tau in the cell culture models. Further studies are needed to elucidate the prion-like propagation property of full-length Tau and its aggregates in a more intense manner in vitro as well as in vivo conditions. Varied post-translational modifications can have discrete effects on aggregation propensity of Tau as well as its propagation. Here, we review the prion-like properties of Tau and hypothesize the role of glycation in prion-like properties of Tau. This post-translationally modified Tau might have an enhanced propagation property due to differential properties conferred by the modifications.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Review</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.454</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balmik, Abhishek Ankur</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sonawane, Shweta Kishor</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chinnathambi, Subashchandrabose</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Extracellular HDAC6 ZnF UBP domain modulates the actin network and post-translational modifications of Tau</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cell Communication and Signaling</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Actin</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cytoskeleton</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HDAC6</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Microtubule</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">neurodegeneration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phosphorylation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Podonut</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Podosomes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tau</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tauopathies</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY </style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">49</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Background: Microtubule-associated protein Tau undergoes aggregation in Alzheimer`s disease (AD) and a group of other related diseases collectively known as Tauopathies. In AD, Tau forms aggregates, which are deposited intracellularly as neurofibrillary tangles. Histone deacetylase-6 (HDAC6) plays an important role in aggresome formation, where it recruits polyubiquitinated aggregates to the motor protein dynein. Methods: Here, we have studied the effects of HDAC6 ZnF UBP on Tau phosphorylation, ApoE localization, GSK-3 beta regulation and cytoskeletal organization in neuronal cells by immunocytochemical analysis. This analysis reveals that the cell exposure to the UBP-type zinc finger domain of HDAC6 (HDAC6 ZnF UBP) can modulate Tau phosphorylation and actin cytoskeleton organization. Results: HDAC6 ZnF UBP treatment to cells did not affect their viability and resulted in enhanced neurite extension and formation of structures similar to podosomes, lamellipodia and podonuts suggesting the role of this domain in actin re-organization. Also, HDAC6 ZnF UBP treatment caused increase in nuclear localization of ApoE and tubulin localization in microtubule organizing centre (MTOC). Therefore, our studies suggest the regulatory role of this domain in different aspects of neurodegenerative diseases. Upon HDAC6 ZnF UBP treatment, inactive phosphorylated form of GSK-3 beta increases without any change in total GSK-3 beta level. Conclusions: HDAC6 ZnF UBP was found to be involved in cytoskeletal re-organization by modulating actin dynamics and tubulin localization. Overall, our study suggests that ZnF domain of HDAC6 performs various regulatory functions apart from its classical function in aggresome formation in protein misfolding diseases.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.712</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
