Co-morbidity of TDP-43 proteinopathy in Lewy body related diseases.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated if TAR-DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43), the disease protein in frontotemporal lobar degeneration and ubiquitin inclusions with or without motor neuron disease as well as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also formed inclusions in Lewy body (LB) disorders including Parkinson's disease (PD) without or with dementia (PDD), and dementia with LBs (DLB) alone or in association with Alzheimer disease (AD).
Journal ArticleDOI

Absence of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins and survival motor neuron protein in TDP-43 positive inclusions in frontotemporal lobar degeneration.

TL;DR: No changes in subcellular distribution, no labeling of pathologic inclusions and no biochemical alterations were detectable for the tested hnRNPs and SMN in FTLD-U brains compared to controls, arguing against a role of these binding partners in the pathogenesis of FT LD-U and emphasize the specificity of TDP-43 as marker for FTLD -U pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Burden of neurodegenerative diseases in a cohort of medical examiner subjects.

TL;DR: In this paper, the burden of neurodegenerative neuropathologies in a cohort of Medical Examiner (ME) subjects from the County of Santa Clara (California) to determine if this unique population of decedents manifested evidence of neuro-degeneration that might underlie causes of death seen in an ME practice.
