[<sup>18</sup>F]-THK5351 PET was performed in 34 patients: six with Parkinson's disease (PD), nine with multiple system atrophy with predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P), six with MSA with predominant cerebellar ataxia (MSA-C), and 13 with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) Richardson's syndrome.
Whilst an association between the tau gene (MAPT)-containing H1 haplotype and supranuclear gaze palsy (PSP) has long been recognized, the effect of H1 on risk for Parkinson's disease (PD) has remained more contentious.
While PSP is largely considered to be a sporadic disorder, cases with suspected familial inheritance have been identified and the common MAPT H1haplotype is a major genetic risk factor.
When compared with HC, MSA and PSP patients shared the changes in PD, with a few exceptions: in MSA, Lachnospiraceae were not lower, and Prevotellaceae were reduced; in PSP, Lactobacillaceae were similar, and Streptococcaceae were reduced.
We utilized RNA sequencing data derived from temporal cortex (TCX) and cerebellum (CER) from 312 North American Caucasian subjects neuropathologically diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, pathological aging or normal controls to analyze transcriptome signatures associated with the risk (TT) and protective (SS) TMEM106B haplotypes.
We used real-time PCR to investigate the level of expression of tau mRNA isoforms and STH mRNA in the frontal cortex and globus pallidus of PSP patients' brains. mRNA levels were compared with those in the brains of two controls groups: healthy controls and Alzheimer's disease patients (AD).
We studied 51 subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) (18 non-demented, 24 demented, and 9 dementia with Lewy bodies) and 127 with atypical parkinsonian syndromes (47 multiple system atrophy (MSA), 38 progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and 42 corticobasal syndrome (CBS)) with <sup>18</sup>F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET to quantify the expression of previously validated disease-related patterns for PD, MSA, PSP, and CBS and <sup>18</sup>F-fluoropropyl-β-CIT PET to quantify caudate and putamen dopamine transporter (DAT) binding.
We sought to address whether the decreases in PP2A methylation and its methylating enzyme, leucine carboxyl methyltransferase (LCMT-1), which are reported in AD, relate to tau pathology or to concomitant amyloid pathology by comparing them in the relatively pure tauopathy PSP.
We show that the entire, fully extended H1 haplotype is associated with PSP, which implicates several other genes in addition to MAPT, as candidate pathogenic loci.

We screened for the most common LRRK 2 mutation in a series of patients with Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's disease, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, Multiple System Atrophy and frontotemporal dementia, as well as in neurologically normal controls.
We screened 37 AD, 8 mild cognitive impairment (MCI), 3 AD and CVD (cerebrovascular disease), 3 MCI and CVD, 8 frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and 2 progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) patients, and 28 normal controls (NCs).We sequenced PSEN1, PSEN2 and APP (EOAD risk factors), as well as MAPT, GRN and TARDBP for all cases and NCs, and analysed the APOE, CLU, CR1 and PICALM genotypes as well as the MAPT and ACE haplotypes (LOAD risk factors) for the AD (n = 37) and AD + MCI (n = 45) cases and NCs (n = 28).We identified variants in PSEN1, PSEN2 and TARDBP across a range of phenotypes (AD, AD and CVD, FTD and PSP), suggesting that screening of all known candidate genes of Alzheimer's and non-Alzheimer's forms of dementias in all dementia cases might be warranted.

We report here the case of a patient with clinical and pathological findings compatible with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), carrier of a single, heterozygous mutation of the parkin gene, and homozygous for the H1/H1 haplotype in the tau gene.
