Alzheimer's Biomarkers and Visuospatial Cognition in Parkinson's Disease: Modification by α‐Synuclein and Mediation of Age Effects

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Visuospatial deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD) often precede dementia and complicate daily functioning. Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and α‐synuclein aggregation frequently co‐occur in PD, but their combined impact on cognition is unclear.

Case Report: Lewy body dementia with unusual psychotic symptoms, atypically late parkinsonism, and patient sensitivity to first generation antipsychotics

Frontiers in Psychiatry
Lewy body dementia is associated with abnormal eosinophilic A-synuclein neural inclusions (Lewy bodies) in the brain. It is a neurodegenerative illness—and the second most common type of dementia after Alzheimer’s disease—that causes memory loss and ...

Bipolar Disorder as a Long‐Term Risk Factor for Parkinson's Disease: A Nationwide Case–Control Study

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous studies suggest an association between bipolar disorder (BD) and an increased risk of Parkinson's disease (PD), but the long‐term temporal relationship remains unclear. Particularly, it is unclear whether the risk of PD is influenced by the duration since BD diagnosis.

Focused Ultrasound for the Treatment of Circuit and Molecular Pathology in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Focused ultrasound is rapidly emerging as a novel technology for the development of symptomatic therapies and supporting disease‐modifying treatments for Parkinson's disease (PD). At the forefront of this development is thermoablation using high‐intensity focused ultrasound, an incisionless treatment that has been extensively tested in ...

Pathogenic or Likely Pathogenic GRN Variants Are Found in 0.1% of Parkinson's Disease Patients

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinsonism may be observed in multiple neurodegenerative diseases, including GRN‐associated frontotemporal dementia (FTD‐GRN), complicating the differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Objectives To investigate the presence of GRN variants in a large group of PD patients.

Sex differences for regional pathology in people with a high likelihood of Lewy body dementia phenotype based on underlying pathology

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring
Introduction Clinicopathological correlations differ by sex in Lewy body dementia (LBD). However, previous studies have focused on pathological staging systems that place less emphasis on regional pathologies.

Lenalidomide reduces microglial activation and behavioral deficits in a transgenic model of Parkinson's disease. [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundParkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common causes of dementia and motor deficits in the elderly. PD is characterized by the abnormal accumulation of the synaptic protein alpha-synuclein (α-syn) and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons ...
