Thank you so much for highlighting our recent work on #Parkinson synuclein SAA, DAT and MRI scans!

Very excited our paper was published back to back with a truly stellar and thorough companion paper by Brooker et al
doi.org/10.1002/mds....

And a humongous thank you all my coauthors and mentors @upenn.edu including Drs Andrew Siderowf, Dave Wolk and Ilya Nasrallah

This DAT/MRI mismatch in PD is associated with worse cognitive and olfactory impairment.

Participants with synuclein SAA- PD may have higher tau pathology biomarkers seen with Alzheimer copathology.

Honored to share our work on #Parkinsons in the journal Movement Disorders!

In sporadic and genetic PD, patients with synuclein SAA+ PD have more striatal DAT deficit relative to atrophy while those with synuclein SAA- PD have more striatal atrophy relative to DAT deficit.

🚨Paper alert
Very happy to share our last work on #IntrinsicCapacity (IC) in dementia with Lewy bodies #DLB (n=154), compared AD (n=644)
πŸ‘‰DLB patients showed lower IC in all domains (locomotion, vitality, psychology, audition), requiring personalized interventions !

Progressive amnestic syndrome with:
1) Hippocampal atrophy
2) Older age ~ 80+
3) Negative AD biomarkers
β€’ Caution with amyloid positivity common with aging
β€’ Tau PET ideal but not covered
β€’ FDG-PET medial > lateral Temporal hypometabolism = supportive

i think so! specific patterns on FDG PET and mismatch help predict a-synuclein and TDP-43 copathology in mixed AD+

Thank you for the highlight and example case! With #LewyBody disease, posterior hypometabolism is often more prominent than atrophy. This could be related to changes in neuronal integrity of posterior networks by a-synuclein.
