Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is an α-synucleinopathy, and pathological α-synuclein (α-Syn) is detectable in peripheral tissues and fluids. However, the diagnostic utility of tear fluid as a minimally invasive source for α-Syn seed detection remains unclear. We aimed to detect α-Syn seeds in tear fluid and evalua...

Misfolded TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is the primary pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). While seed amplification assays (SAAs), such as real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC), have shown promise in detecting misfolded TDP-43 in cere...

TDP-43 proteinopathies, encompassing amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), and limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE), represent a heterogeneous spectrum of devastating neurodegenerative disorders. For decades, the diverse clinical presentations of these dis...
