| Study | Method(s) | Target of tau phosphorylation | NFT formation | Other phenotype |
| Bai et al., 2007 | MAP-Tau4R mutation | Enolase-2 promoter – Neurons | Yes | |
| Cosacak et al., 2017 | Tau P301L mutation | her4.1 promoter – NPCs (with radial glial identity) and neurons | No – Investigated in adult zebrafish | |
| Lopez et al., 2017 | Tau A152T mutation | PanN:Gal4VP15 driver – Pan-neuronal | Yes | Increased neuronal cell death. Impaired proteasome function. |
| Paquet et al., 2009 | Tau P301L mutation | HuC promoter – Neurons | Yes | Increased neuronal cell death. Reduced length and branching of motor neurons. |
