Loss of tau and Fyn reduces compensatory effects of MAP2 for tau and reveals a Fyn‐independent effect of tau on calcium

Abstract: Microtubule-associated protein tau associates with Src family tyrosine kinase Fyn and is tyrosine phosphorylated by Fyn. The presence of tyrosine phosphorylated tau in AD and the involvement of Fyn in AD has drawn attention to the tau-Fyn complex.In this study, a tau-Fyn double knockout (DKO) mouse was generated to investigate the role of the complex. DKO mice resembled Fyn KO in novel object recognition and contextual fear conditioning tasks and resembled tau KO mice in the pole test and protection from penty… Show more

“…The 34.3% decrease in NR2B levels was not significant by two-way ANOVA ( p = 0.3607) but was significant if only WT and WT-AAV were compared using the unpaired t-test ( p = 0.0304, SI Table 1 ). Similar to our previous findings [ 46 ], Fyn KO uninjected animals had no changes in PSD95 ( p = 0.4378) or NR2B ( p = 0.9986) when compared to WT uninjected animals (Fig. 7 a,b; SI Table 1 ), indicating that Fyn depletion itself did not cause alterations in synaptic integrity at 6 months of age.…”

“…5 ). However, Fyn KO mice were already known to have abnormal exploratory behavior and cognitive deficits relative to WT mice [ 31 , 46 , 53 ], stemming from Fyn’s role in mediating LTP and memory formation through the phosphorylation of NMDARs [ 23 , 35 , 56 , 83 ]. Therefore, the Fyn KO mice may already be performing at such a low level that further decreases might not be possible no matter the insult, such as tau P301L (also known as the “floor effect”).…”

“…DKO mice showed significantly increased latency to convulsive seizures and overall reduced seizure severity, but they are not so different from tau KO mice (Figure 1). Another study also corroborated the protective effects of combinatorial Fyn and tau removal against PTZ induced-seizures (Liu et al, 2019). While tau KO mice were similar to DKO mice regarding protective effects against seizures, the Fyn KO mice did not significantly display sufficient anti-seizure effects despite having a reduction of seizure severity by 36 ± 8% compared to WT mice treated with PTZ in this study (Figures 1C-E).…”
