Abstract

α-Synucleinopathies are neurodegenerative diseases characterised by the abnormal accumulation of α-synuclein aggregates in neurons, nerve fibres or glial cells. While small amounts of these α-synuclein pathologies can occur in some neurologically normal individuals who do not have associated neurodegeneration, the absence of neurodegeneration in such individuals precludes them from having a degenerative α-synucleinopathy, and it has yet to be established whether such individuals have a form of preclinical disease. There are three main types of α-synucleinopathy, Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA), with other rare disorders also having α-synuclein pathologies, such as various neuroaxonal dystrophies. Multiple clinical phenotypes exist for each of the three main α-synucleinopathies, with these phenotypes differing in the dynamic distribution of their underlying neuropathologies. Identifying the factors involved in causing different α-synuclein phenotypes may ultimately lead to more targeted therapeutics as well as more accurate clinical prognosis.

Figures

Figure 2 Diagram illustrating the different pathological types of cases meeting clinical criteria for Parkinson's disease with dementia (PDD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Lewy-related pathologies (LRP) identified in sections from the temporal cortex and amygdala stained for α-synuclein immunohistochemistry and counterstained with cresyl violet. Plaques are identified in sections from temporal cortex stained for amyloid β immunohistochemistry and counterstained with cresyl violet. Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) identified in sections from the temporal cortex stained with a modified Bielschowsky silver stain.

Figure 3 Photomicrographs of the substantia nigra (SN in A-D), putamen (E-H) and cerebellum (I-L) of representative controls (A, E, I) and cases with early and mild (B, F, J) or late and severe (C, G, K) MSA. Cases with MSA-P have substantial degeneration in the putamen (F, G) in addition to the substantia nigra (B, C), while cases with MSA-C have substantial degeneration in the cerebellum (J, K) in addition to the substantia nigra (B, C), as shown in haematoxylin and eosin stained sections. αSynuclein immunoreactive glial cytoplasmic inclusions are observed in all regions of neurodegeneration in MSA (D, H, L). cp=cerebral peduncle.

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.
