MAPT and tauopathy: Compared to the non-disease condition, the microglia in the zebrafish tauopathy model became highly mobile and dynamically changed their morphology with a fewer and shorter branching: more interestingly, the phagocytosis process by the microglia engulfing apoptotic neurons was also observed in real time, and furthermore, the genetic ablation of microglia increased the Tau hyperphosphorylation level, suggesting that microglia possesses a neuroprotective role in the tauopathy condition [195].
