Dementia with Lewy bodies

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2006
Advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) is frequently associated with dementia. The pathogenesis of this dementia is complex, related to deficiency of several biogenic amines and cortical Lewy body deposition, as well as co-existent age-related brain changes, both of the Alzheimer type and vascular.

Lewy bodies and dementia

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2001
The discovery of widely distributed Lewy bodies (LBs) in the brains of patients with dementia has stimulated much clinical and pathologic inquiry. This clinico-pathologic syndrome is now referred to as dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Diagnostic criteria for DLB proposed at a workshop in 1995 are receiving detailed scrutiny. The criteria are complex to

Microglia in dementia with Lewy bodies

Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, 2016
Microglial activation (neuroinflammation) is often cited as a pathogenic factor in the development of neurodegenerative diseases. However, there are significant caveats associated with the idea that inflammation directly causes either α-synuclein pathology or neurofibrillary degeneration (NFD).

Distinguishing Lewy Body Dementia

Hospital Practice, 1998
The presence of the distinctive formations known as Lewy bodies within brain cells has been linked to senile dementia. A pattern of clinical features helps distinguish Lewy body dementia from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Differentiation can be important, because many patients with Lewy body dementia have a hypersensitivity to neuroleptic ...
