Atypical Frontotemporal Dementia Associated With SQSTM1 Gene Mutation: A Clinicopathological Case. [PDF]
ABSTRACT A 78‐year‐old man presented with a six‐year history of progressive memory decline, initially manifesting as recent memory impairment and mild anomia, which gradually evolved into motor clumsiness, gait disturbances, language difficulties, behavioral changes, and late‐onset parkinsonism. He had been diagnosed with Paget disease of bone (PDB) at

Nerve Excitability in Asymptomatic Carriers and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Patients With C9orf72
ABSTRACT Objective We investigated the effects of C9orf72 mutation carriership on peripheral nerve excitability in asymptomatic individuals from families with a history of C9orf72 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and patients. Methods We included 47 asymptomatic individuals from families with a history of C9orf72 ALS, of whom 23 were carriers (C9 ...

Genetic Creutzfeldt‒Jakob disease with 5-octapeptide repeats presented as frontotemporal dementia
The N-terminus of the PRNP gene normally contains a 5-octapeptide repeat (R1-R2-R2-R3-R4), and insertions at this locus can cause hereditary prion diseases.

ABSTRACT Introduction Neuronal pentraxin 2 (NPTX2) is a synaptic protein involved in synaptic plasticity and regulation of neuronal excitability. Lower baseline cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) NPTX2 levels have been shown to be associated with an earlier onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a pre‐dementia syndrome, even after CSF Alzheimer's Disease (AD)

ABSTRACT Background Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) is a major causative gene for axonal Charcot – Marie – Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A), with a wide phenotypic spectrum. Comprehensive large ‐ scale genotype – phenotype association studies are essential for understanding disease pathogenesis and improved clinical management.

Olfactory impairment in frontotemporal dementia: A systematic review and meta-analysis
. Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) presents clinically in three variants: one behavioral and two with progressive primary aphasia - non-fluent/agrammatic and semantic. Defined by the degenerative process and cerebral atrophy, olfactory dysfunction occurs in
