There were significantly higher levels of epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl) lysine cross-linking of PHF-tau in globus pallidus and pons regions of PSP cases compared to barely detectable cross-links in controls. The occipital cortex, an area spared from neurofibrillary pathology in PSP, showed no detectable cross-linking of PHF-tau protein in either PSP cases or control cases. Double-label immunofluorescence demonstrated the colocalization of the cross-link and PHF-tau in NFT in pons of PSP Previous studies and present data are consistent with the hypothesis that transglutaminase-induced cross-linking may be a factor contributing to the abnormal polymerization and stabilization of tau in straight and PHFs leading to neurofibrillary tangle formation in neurodegenerative diseases, including PSP and AD.

The number of neurons that are immunoreactive with an antibody directed at the epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)lysine bond was significantly higher in AD cortex compared with age-matched controls and schizophrenics. PHF tau-directed antibodies AT8, MC-1 and PHF-1 co-localized with epsilon(gamma-glutamyl)lysine immunolabeling in AD NFT. Immunoaffinity purification and immunoblotting experiments demonstrated that PHF tau contains epsilon(gamma-glutamyl)lysine bonds in parietal and frontal cortex in AD. In control cases with NFT present in the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, indicative of Braak and Braak stage II, epsilon(gamma-glutamyl)lysine bonds were present in PHF tau in parietal and frontal cortex, despite the lack of microscopically detectable NFT or senile plaques in these cortical regions. The presence of PHF tau with epsilon(gamma-glutamyl)lysine bonds in brain regions devoid of NFT in stage II (but regions, which would be expected to contain NFT in stage III) suggests that these bonds occur early in the formation of NFT.

Degenerating neurons from the AD hippocampus, compared to neurons from the normal aged hippocampus, exhibited increased immunoreactivity for TGase and demonstrated co-labeling for PHF1 and anti-TGase. Our results suggest that TGase may be associated with the neurofibrillary degeneration observed in AD, thereby implicating TGase as a potential factor in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease.
