Neuropathology of incidental Lewy body & prodromal Parkinson’s disease

Molecular Neurodegeneration, 2023
Background Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with a loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons. Despite symptomatic therapies, there is currently no disease-modifying treatment to halt neuronal loss in PD.

Neural connectivity predicts spreading of alpha-synuclein pathology in fibril-injected mouse models: Involvement of retrograde and anterograde axonal propagation. [PDF]

, 2020
In Parkinson's disease, some of the first alpha-synuclein aggregates appear in the olfactory system and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve before spreading to connected brain regions.

Lewy body disease and dementia with Lewy bodies

Proceedings of the Japan Academy, Series B, 2014
In 1976 we reported our first autopsied case with diffuse Lewy body disease (DLBD), the term of which we proposed in 1984. We also proposed the term "Lewy body disease" (LBD) in 1980. Subsequently, we classified LBD into three types according to the distribution pattern of Lewy bodies: a brain stem type, a transitional type and a diffuse type.

Posterior Cortical Atrophy in the Asia‐Pacific: A Report From the PCA Asian Workgroup

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Posterior Cortical Atrophy (PCA) is a distinct dementia syndrome primarily affecting spatial abilities and visual processing. It is associated with degeneration in the posterior part of the brain. PCA is subclassified into PCA‐pure and PCA‐plus syndromes based on consensus criteria.

Clinical Validation of Plasma p‐217tau in Neurological Diseases

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

Early manifestation of depressive‐like behavior in transgenic mice that express dementia with Lewy body‐linked mutant β‐synuclein

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2018
Aim We previously generated transgenic (Tg) mice that expressed P123H β‐synuclein (βS), a dementia with Lewy body‐linked mutant βS. Notably, these mice recapitulated neurodegenerative features of Lewy body disease, reflected by motor dysfunction, greater

Characteristics of facial expression recognition ability in patients with Lewy body disease

Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine, 2018
Background The facial expression of medical staff has been known to greatly affect the psychological state of patients, making them feel uneasy or conversely, cheering them up. By clarifying the characteristics of facial expression recognition ability in

Structural connectivity networks in Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body disease

Brain and Behavior, 2021
Objective We evaluated disruption of the white matter (WM) network related with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Lewy body disease (LBD), which includes Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies.

C-elegans model identifies genetic modifiers of alpha-synuclein inclusion formation during aging [PDF]

, 2008
Inclusions in the brain containing alpha-synuclein are the pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, but how these inclusions are formed and how this links to disease is poorly understood.
