P301S-tau (Tg(Prnp-MAPT*P301S)PS19Vle) transgenic mice were obtained from Jackson laboratories and were bred and maintained by the UCLA Division of Laboratory Animal Medicine. Homozygous P301S-tau and wild-type littermates were used in this study. Mice were housed in groups of 5, under a 12-h light/12-h dark cycle at 21 °C, with food and water ad libitum. All the experiments were reviewed and carried out in accordance with National Research Council Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, approved by the University of California-Los Angeles Institutional Animal Care Use Committee, and performed with strict adherence to the guidelines set out in the National Institutes of Health Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.
