Newest firstAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by upper and lower motor neuron signs. There are, however, cases where upper motor neurons (UMNs) are predominantly affected, leading to clinical presentations of UMN-dominant ALS or primary lateral sclerosis. Furthermore, cases exhibiting an UMN-predominant pattern of motor neuron disease (MND) presenting with corticobasal syndrome…
Open article record in new tab ↗Dysregulation of the complement system plays an important role in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). In post-mortem AD brains, complement is deposited in and around amyloid plaques, and peri-plaque complement activation drives synapse loss in AD mouse models. Studies to date have focused on amyloid pathology; however, aggregated tau is also involved in neuronal loss…
Open article record in new tab ↗Previous studies have suggested a relationship between the number of CAG triplet repeats in the HTT gene and neurodegenerative diseases not related to Huntington's disease (HD). This study seeks to investigate whether the number of CAG repeats of HTT is associated with the risk of developing certain tauopathies and its influence as a modulator of the clinical and neuropathological phenotype. Additionally, it aims…
Primary 4-repeat tauopathies with frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) like Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) or Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD) show diverse cellular pathology in various brain regions. Besides shared characteristics of neuronal and oligodendroglial cytoplasmic inclusions of accumulated hyperphosphorylated tau protein (pTau), astrocytes in PSP and CBD contain pathognomonic pTau aggregates -…
