Alpha-synuclein pathology does not predict extrapyramidal symptoms or dementia
- Abstract:
-
Intracytoplasmic aggregation of α-synuclein protein as Lewy bodies in the brainstem neurons is diagnostic for Parkinson's disease, whereas if this process also occurs in the cortical neurons, it is considered pathognomonic for dementia with Lewy bodies. However, the link between α-synuclein incorporation into inclusions, neuronal dysfunction, and clinical symptoms needs to be clarified. Another important issue of the pathogenetic puzzle is to understand where α-synuclein pathology begins and ...
