Tau immunoblot and immunoelectron microscopy of the sarkosyl-insoluble, urea-soluble fraction from brains in diffuse form pAGD cases. A, B Tau immunoblot analysis in cases 1 and 2 with AT8 (A) and T46 (B). Approximately 68- and 64-kDa bands were noted in all regions examined in cases 1 and 2. Low molecular weight tau fragments of approximately 22-kDa band and 37-kDa doublet were also noted in both cases. Weak 60-kDa bands that suggest tau accumulation as AD pathology were noted in the amygdala and inferior temporal gyrus in case 2. CF Immunoelectron microscopy of sarkosyl-insoluble tau from brains in cases 1 (C, D) and 2 (E, F). AT8 was used as a primary antibody and was labeled by secondary antibody conjugated to 15-nm gold particles. AT8-positive twisted ribbon-like filaments were noted in both cases. PH: parahippocampal gyrus; IT: inferior temporal gyrus; MF: middle frontal gyrus; CN: caudate nucleus; AM: amygdala
