Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of recently described tau mutations show considerable clinical heterogeneity. The assessment of this phenotypic variation is of vital importance in the differential diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases. OBJECTIVE: To assess the neuropathologic heterogeneity in a comprehensive study of 12 brains with a tau mutation at exon 10(+16) (C-to-T) splice site from 9 families. METHODS: A...
