Divergent patterns of TDP-43 and tau pathologies in primary progressive aphasia.

TL;DR: To measure postmortem burden of frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP‐43 (FTLD‐TDP) or tau (FT LD‐Tau) proteinopathy across hemispheres in primary progressive aphasia (PPA) using digital histopathology and to identify clinicopathological correlates of these distinct proteinopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI

α-Synuclein in Familial Alzheimer Disease: Epitope Mapping Parallels Dementia With Lewy Bodies and Parkinson Disease

TL;DR: These findings support the hypothesis that the mechanism of α-synuclein aggregation is the same within cell types but distinctive between cell types, and suggest that the epitope profiles in LBs are similar, regardless of whether the biological trigger is related to synuclein or a different genetic pathway.

Phosphorylated a-Synuclein in Parkinson's Disease

TL;DR: An assay for detecting phosphorylated α-synuclein in CSF may help to diagnose Parkinson’s disease and determine disease severity, and early results suggest that PS-129 may be useful as a marker to assist in the differential diagnosis of PD and to monitor disease progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Alzheimer’s Disease-Derived Biomarker Signature Identifies Parkinson’s Disease Patients with Dementia

TL;DR: Evaluated relationships among 17 biomarkers previously reported to associate with cognition in Parkinson’s disease or AD to test performance of a five-biomarker classifier trained to recognize AD in identifying PD with dementia (PDD), suggesting mechanisms shared with AD in some PDD patients.
