Abstract excerpt
The microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) H1 haplotype has been identified as a genetic risk factor for synucleinopathies. However, whether it modulates tau or α-synuclein pathology remains unknown. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between MAPT haplotypes and pathologic aggregates of tau and α-synuclein in pathologically confirmed cases of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Twenty-two cases...
