Abstract

TDP-43 is a major component of ubiquitin-positive, tau-negative inclusions in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. We immunohistochemically examined the neostriatum from 14 cases of classic ALS (cALS), six cases of ALS with dementia (ALS-D), and 20 control subjects. TDP-43-positive, crescent or circular inclusions were found in neostriatal small neurons in 19 of 20 cases of ALS, but not in controls. Two types of inclusions were found in the large neurons: ubiquitin-positive, TDP-43-negative rod-like inclusions, and ubiquitin- and TDP-43-positive pleomorphic inclusions. The latter were specific to ALS; they were found in seven cases of cALS and in all of ALS-D. TDP-43-positive glial inclusions were also found in 12 cases of cALS and in all of ALS-D. These TDP-43-positive neuronal and glial inclusions were more numerous in ALS-D than cALS. In ALS-D, neuronal loss in the substantia nigra was found in all the cases, whereas mild gliosis without obvious neuronal loss was noted in the neostriaum in only two cases. These findings suggest that the neostriatum is also involved in the disease process of ALS with and without dementia.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
