Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common neurodegenerative dementia following Alzheimer disease. It stems from the formation of Lewy bodies, which contain aggregates of the misfolded protein, α-synuclein. These deposit in areas of the nervous system and brain, leading to neuronal cell death and causing clinically apparent symptoms ...

Cortical Lewy Body Dementia [PDF]
In cortical Lewy body dementia the distribution of Lewy bodies in the nervous system follows that of Parkinson's disease, except for their greater profusion in the cerebral cortex. The cortical tangles and plaques of Alzheimer pathology are often present,

Phenoconversion from probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder to mild cognitive impairment to dementia in a population‐based sample [PDF]
Introduction Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is strongly associated with synucleinopathies. In 2012, we reported an increased risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Parkinson disease (PD) in cognitively normal Olmsted County ...

Evidence for divergent cortical organisation in Parkinson’s disease and Lewy Body Dementia [PDF]
Dementia is a defining feature of Lewy body disease: its timing and onset distinguish different clinical diagnoses, and its effect on quality of life is profound.

Neuropathology of Lewy body dementia: Lewy-related pathology, α-synuclein oligomers, and comorbid pathologies [PDF]
Lewy body dementia is the second most common form of neurodegenerative dementia, following Alzheimer’s disease. This umbrella term encompasses dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD).

Clinical prevalence of Lewy body dementia [PDF]
Background The prevalence of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and dementia in Parkinson’s disease (PDD) in routine clinical practice is unclear. Prevalence rates observed in clinical and population-based cohorts and neuropathological studies vary greatly.

Research models to study lewy body dementia [PDF]
Lewy body dementia (LBD) encompasses neurodegenerative dementias characterized by cognitive fluctuations, visual hallucinations, and parkinsonism. Clinical differentiation of LBD from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) remains complex due to symptom overlap, yet ...

Novel Ubiquitin Specific Protease-13 Inhibitors Alleviate Neurodegenerative Pathology
Ubiquitin Specific Protease-13 (USP13) promotes protein de-ubiquitination and is poorly understood in neurodegeneration. USP13 is upregulated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD), and USP13 knockdown via shRNA reduces neurotoxic ...
