abstract = {A variety of neurodegenerative disorders, including
Alzheimer disease (AD), are associated with neurofibrillary
tangles composed of the tau protein, as well as toxic tau
oligomers. Inhibitors of pathological tau aggregation,
interrupting tau self-assembly, might be useful for the
development of therapeutics. Employing mirror image phage
display with a large peptide library (over 109 different
peptides), we have identified tau fibril binding peptides
consisting of d-enantiomeric amino acids. d-enantiomeric
peptides are extremely protease stable and not or less
immunogenic than l-peptides, and the suitability of
d-peptides for in vivo applications have already been
demonstrated. Phage display selections were performed using
fibrils of the d-enantiomeric hexapeptide VQIVYK,
representing residues 306 to 311 of the tau protein, as a
target. VQIVYK has been demonstrated to be important for
fibril formation of the full lengths protein and forms
fibrils by itself. Here, we report on d-enantiomeric
peptides, which bind to VQIVYK, tau isoforms like tau3RD
(K19) as well as to full lengths tau fibrils, and modulate
the aggregation of the respective tau form. The peptides are
able to penetrate cells and might be interesting for
therapeutic and diagnostic applications in AD research.},
