A case of familial frontotemporal dementia caused by a progranulin gene mutation
After Alzheimer’s disease, Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the most common cause of early-onset dementia. Several genetic mutations have been identified in familial FTD, with mutations in progranulin (GRN) accounting for approximately 20–25% of familial

Total and phosphorylated tau proteins: Evaluation as core biomarker candidates in frontotemporal dementia [PDF]
An ever increasing number of patients with neurodegenerative disorders calls for the evaluation of potential diagnostic markers that allow an early diagnosis and an early initiation of specific therapy. Clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the

Inheritance of Frontotemporal Dementia [PDF]
Previous studies of families with fronto-temporal dementia (FTD) support an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, but most studies have described genetic transmission in individual families specifically selected for the presence of multiple affected individuals.To investigate the familial presentation and inheritance of FTD and related disorders ...
