Journal ArticleDOI

Widespread nitration of pathological inclusions in neurodegenerative synucleinopathies.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that an anti-3-nitrotyrosine polyclonal antibody stains all of the major hallmark lesions of synucleinopathies including Lewy bodies, Lewy neurites and neuraxonal spheroids, implying that alpha-synuclein is nitrated in pathological lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accumulation of amyloid beta and tau and the formation of neurofilament inclusions following diffuse brain injury in the pig.

TL;DR: Results show that this pig model of diffuse brain injury is characterized by accumulations of proteins that also form pathological aggregates in AD and related neurodegenerative diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proposed neuropathological criteria for the post mortem diagnosis of multiple system atrophy.

TL;DR: The MSA Workshop recognized the glial cytoplasmic inclusions composed of filamentous alpha‐synuclein as a defining morphological feature of MSA, and it recommends that widespread GCIs should be a criterion for the definite neuropathological diagnosis of M SA.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of calpain-mediated spectrin proteolysis in traumatically induced axonal injury.

TL;DR: Findings provide the first direct evidence for focal CMSP in the pathogenesis of generalized/diffuse AI and reveal an initial subaxolemmal involvement prior to induction of a more widespread axoplasmic change indicating a spatial-temporal compartmentalization of the calcium-induced proteolytic process that may be amenable to rapid therapeutic intervention.
