In mouse models, tau impairs neuronal complex spike bursting and associated network processes in hippocampus CA1 alongside CaV2.3 downregulation. Soluble high-molecular-weight tau species drive these impairments, as lowering levels rectifies deficits and AD patient-derived extracts selectively compromise burst generation.
