Journal ArticleDOI

Sequestration of RNA in Alzheimer's disease neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques

TL;DR: Quantitative analysis of double‐labeled sections demonstrated that approximately 80% of TS‐positive NFTs also were AO‐positive, whereas approximately 55% ofTS‐stained SPs contained AO labeling, demonstrating the relative specificity of AO for RNA species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study of corticobasal degeneration identifies risk variants shared with progressive supranuclear palsy

TL;DR: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) in CBD cases (n=152) and 3,311 controls, and 67 CBD cases and 439 controls in a replication stage was conducted in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alpha-synuclein-induced aggregation of cytoplasmic vesicles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided ultrastructural evidence that alpha-syn accumulations are not comprised of Lewy bodies, but are associated with clusters of vesicles, and they used live-cell imaging to reveal the molecular determinants and vesicular trafficking pathways underlying this pathological process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of Potential Infectivity of Alzheimer and Parkinson Disease Proteins in Recipients of Cadaver-Derived Human Growth Hormone

TL;DR: In this unique in vivo model of human-to-human transmission, there is no evidence to support concerns that NDAPs underlying AD and PD transmit disease in humans despite evidence of their cell- to-cell transmission in model systems of these disorders.
