Journal ArticleDOI
Alpha-synuclein in Lewy bodies.
Maria Grazia Spillantini,Marie L. Schmidt,Virginia M.-Y. Lee,John Q. Trojanowski,Ross Jakes,Michel Goedert +5 more
TL;DR: Strong staining of Lewy bodies from idiopathic Parkinson's disease with antibodies for α-synuclein, a presynaptic protein of unknown function which is mutated in some familial cases of the disease, indicates that the LewY bodies from these two diseases may have identical compositions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ubiquitinated TDP-43 in frontotemporal lobar degeneration and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Manuela Neumann,Deepak M. Sampathu,Linda K. Kwong,Adam C. Truax,Matthew Micsenyi,Thomas T. Chou,Jennifer Bruce,Theresa Schuck,Murray Grossman,Christopher M. Clark,Leo McCluskey,Bruce L. Miller,Eliezer Masliah,Ian R. A. Mackenzie,Howard Feldman,Wolfgang Feiden,Hans A. Kretzschmar,John Q. Trojanowski,Virginia M.-Y. Lee +18 more
TL;DR: It is shown that TDP-43 is the major disease protein in both frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin-positive inclusions and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) Consortium has revised criteria for the clinical and pathologic diagnosis of DLB incorporating new information about the core clinical features and suggesting improved methods to assess them as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tau-mediated neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease and related disorders.
TL;DR: This Review summarizes the most recent advances in knowledge of the mechanisms of tau-mediated neurodegeneration to forge an integrated concept of those t Tau-linked disease processes that drive the onset and progression of AD and related tauopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathological α-Synuclein Transmission Initiates Parkinson-like Neurodegeneration in Nontransgenic Mice
Kelvin C. Luk,Victoria M. Kehm,Jenna C. Carroll,Bin Zhang,Patrick O’Brien,John Q. Trojanowski,Virginia M.-Y. Lee +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that in wild-type nontransgenic mice, a single intrastriatal inoculation of synthetic α- Syn fibrils led to the cell-to-cell transmission of pathologic α-Syn and Parkinson’s-like Lewy pathology in anatomically interconnected regions.
