Transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 burden in familial Alzheimer disease and Down syndrome.

TL;DR: Transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 pathology occurs in FAD and DS, similar to that observed in sporadic Alzheimer disease, and may contribute the cognitive impairments in familial and sporadic forms of Alzheimer disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurofibrillary tangles in progressive supranuclear palsy contain the same tau epitopes identified in Alzheimer's disease PHFtau.

TL;DR: Despite differences in the distribution, ultrastructure and immunoblot profile of NFTs in PSP and AD, the same constellation of tau epitopes is present in the abnormal tau proteins in PSP (PSPtau) and AD N FTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurofilament mRNA is reduced in Parkinson's disease substantia nigra pars compacta neurons.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the formation of neurofilament‐rich Lewy bodies in substantia nigra pars compacta neurons is associated with reduced levels of the heavy and light neurofilaments mRNAs in Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Semi-automated quantification of C9orf72 expansion size reveals inverse correlation between hexanucleotide repeat number and disease duration in frontotemporal degeneration

TL;DR: Semi-automated expansion size measurements demonstrated an inverse relationship between C9orf72 expansion size and disease duration in patients with FTD, suggesting that C 9orf72 repeat size may be a molecular disease modifier in FTD linked to hexanucleotide repeat expansion.
