“…PP2A heterotrimers consisting of the PR55 regulatory B-subunit (PP2A/PR55) account for over 70% of tau phosphatase activity in the brain and is essential for the dephosphorylation of tau Liu et al, 2005;Shi, 2009;Wang et al, 1996Wang et al, , 2007Xu et al, 2008). Importantly, the downregulation of PP2A/PR55 occurs after brain insult (Chen et al, 2010;Koh, 2013;Shultz et al, 2015c), and promotes h-tau (Bolognin et al, 2012;Sontag et al, 2004). As such, PP2A/PR55 may be affected by mTBI and contribute to h-tau, and up-regulating PP2A/PR55 may reduce h-tau and improve outcomes in the rmTBI setting.…”
