Widespread distribution and abundant accumulation of alpha-synuclein oligomers in multiple system atrophy brain
Objective: To examine the distribution of alpha-synuclein (αSyn) oligomers as an early pathological change in multiple system atrophy (MSA) brains. Background: Although severe neuronal loss…Serum MIR-96-5P and MIR-339-5P as a Potential Biomarker for Multiple System Atrophy and Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: The aim of our study was to to determine if serum mir-96-5p and mir-339-5p can be used as biomarkers for early diagnosis of Parkinson’s…Multiple System Atrophy – perspectives in diagnosis?
Objective: The aim of this study was to study the role of perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in the examination of multiple system…Premature State of Oligodendrocytes Potentially Provides Critical Period for Extracellular Pathological α-Synuclein to Invade Oligodendrocyte Lineage Cells
Objective: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is pathologically characterized by accumulation of misfolded α-synuclein (α-syn) in oligodendrocytes (OLGs), which is known as glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs).…Multiple system atrophy with predominant striato-nigral degeneration (MSA-P) and TDP-43 pathology: an unusual pathologic variant of MSA
Objective: To report a patient with MSA with concomitant occurrence of TDP-43-labeled and a-synuclein labeled inclusions in oligodendrocytes. Background: The pathologic hallmark in multiple system atrophy…Patterns of dopamine transporter imaging in subtypes of Multiple System Atrophy
Objective: To investigate the differences in the pattern of striatal (caudate and putamen) dopamine transporter(DAT) loss in a multiple system atrophy (MSA) cohort, based on…The etiologies of chronic progressive cerebellar ataxia in a Korean population
Objective: The etiologies and frequency of cerebellar ataxias vary among countries. Our primary aim was to assess the frequency of each diagnostic group of cerebellar…Apolipoprotein E and multiple system atrophy
Objective: This study evaluated genetic associations of Apolipoprotein E alleles with risk of multiple system atrophy (MSA) and α-synuclein pathology, and also examined whether apolipoprotein…Serum fractalkine levels in Parkinson’s disease: Evidence for neuroinflammation
Objective: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra. We measured neuroinflammatory marker fractalkine in…PROMESA: A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the progression rate of MSA under EGCG supplementation as anti-aggregation-approach
Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in high doses and its efficacy to slow down disease progression in patients with…
