Multiple neuronal pathologies are common in young patients with pathologically proven Frontotemporal lobar degeneration

ConclusionsIn summary, the present study reports for the first time that age is not a major risk factor for multiple neuronal pathologies in FTLD. These findings have significant implications for the development of protein‐specific biomarkers and treatments for FTLD, and underscore the need for further research to identify the disease factors involved in driving multiple neuronal pathologies in FTLD.This article is protected by copyright.
