Tau hyperphosphorylation is seen in microfoci throughout the contralateral superficial cortex. AT8 was significantly increased at 1 month post repetitive blast (t = 4.455, p < 0.001). AT270 was also significantly increased following repetitive blast (t = 11.47, p < 0.001). AT270 was increased in a circular distribution. Tau hyperphosphorylation is an indicator of progressive pathology. Values were calculated using a student’s t-test comparing the mean difference between groups.
