How can we manage progressive supranuclear palsy syndrome with pharmacotherapy?

Pharmacological therapy for PSPS may interfere with the aggregation process or promote the clearance of abnormal tau aggregates. A variety of past and ongoing disease-modifying therapies targeting tau in PSPS included genetic, microtubule-stabilizing compounds, anti-phosphorylation, and acetylation agents, antiaggregant, protein removal, antioxidant neuronal and synaptic growth promotion therapies. New pharmacological gene-based approaches may open alternative prevention pathways for the deposition of abnormal tau in PSPS such as antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-based drugs. Moreover, kinases and ubiquitin-proteasome systems could also be viable targets.
