    Abstract: Provided are compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions for reducing the amount or activity of Tau mRNA in a cell or animal, and in certain instances reducing the amount of Tau protein in a cell or animal. Such compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions are useful to ameliorate at least one symptom of a neurodegenerative disease. Such symptoms include loss of memory, loss of motor function, and increase in the number and/or volume of neurofibrillary inclusions. Such neurodegenerative diseases include tauopathies, Alzheimer's Disease, Fronto-temporal Dementia (FTD), FTDP-17, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), Corticobasal Ganglionic Degeneration (CBD), Epilepsy, and Dravet's Syndrome.
