The p-tau (AT8) labelling for the same tissue sections is shown at the bottom (c–d) . Scale bar: 200 µm. In all three cases, focal increases in NQO1, CHI3L1, GFAP, AQP4 and FTL (L-ferritin) mRNA and protein expression are seen in cortical layer 1, the white matter and within the lesion area (yellow arrow) where AT8 tau is highly concentrated.
