Newest firstTauopathies are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by intracellular accumulation of abnormal tau encoded by MAPT, yet their molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We aimed to identify proteomic signatures associated with the primary tauopathies corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), as well as the secondary tauopathy Alzheimer's disease (AD), and to character…
Open article record in new tab ↗Purpose Due to the indistinguishable clinical features of corticobasal syndrome (CBS), the antemortem differentiation between corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and its mimics remains challenging. However, the utility of conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of CBD has not been sufficiently evaluated. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of conventional MRI findings in…
Introduction Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) manifest with variable clinical features. We initiated a multicenter prospective registry study-the Japanese Longitudinal Biomarker Study in PSP and CBD-in November 2014 at 45 Japanese institutions to collect clinical information and biological samples to elucidate the natural courses and diagnostic biomarkers of PSP/CBD. Methods…
•We report the immunohistochemical and biochemical features of an FTDP-17 case with MAPT IVS 10 + 14C > T mutation.•Postmortem examination of the patient with bvFTD revealed diffuse neuronal and glial 4-repeat tau pathology similar to CBD.•The structure of tau filaments associated with MAPT IVS 10 + 14C > T mutation was characterized by electron microscopy.
Open article record in new tab ↗ABSTRACT Ordered assembly of the tau protein into filaments characterizes multiple neurodegenerative diseases, which are called tauopathies. We previously reported that by electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM), tau filament structures from Alzheimer’s disease (1,2), chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) (3), Pick’s disease (4) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) (5) are distinct. Here we show that the structures of…
Open article record in new tab ↗Corticobasal degeneration (CBD) is a neurodegenerative tauopathy that is characterised by motor and cognitive disturbances (1–3). A higher frequency of the H1 haplotype of MAPT , the tau gene, is present in cases of CBD than in controls (4, 5) and genome-wide association studies have identified additional risk factors (6). By histology, astrocytic plaques are diagnostic of CBD (7, 8), as are detergent-insoluble ta…
