Background: The onset of multiple system atrophy (MSA) before age 40 years is referred to as “young‐onset MSA.” We identified clinical and pathological characteristics that might help with its early diagnosis and distinction from young‐onset Parkinson's disease and late‐onset MSA.
Methods: We reviewed the available clinical and pathological features in cases that fulfilled consensus criteria for diagnosis...
BackgroundMSA is characterized by deposition of alpha‐synuclein (α‐Syn) in oligodendrocytes and central nervous system (CNS) neurons. After recently detecting phospho‐α‐Syn (p‐α‐Syn) in dermal nerve fibers of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), we assessed skin biopsies from patients with MSA to evaluate its potential role as a biomarker.
MethodsSkin biopsies of patients with MSA (n = 12), idiopathic...
