lüll Non-Alzheimer s disease dementias: anatomic, clinical, and molecular correlates Hou CE; Carlin D; Miller BLCan J Psychiatry 2004[Mar]; 49 (3): 164-71OBJECTIVE: To review the clinical and molecular features of non-Alzheimer's disease (non-AD) dementias, focusing on disorders associated with tau pathology (that is, frontotemporal lobar degeneration [FTLD], corticobasal ganglionic degeneration [CBD], and progressive supranuclear palsy [PSP]) or on disorders with synuclein pathology (that is, dementia with Lewy bodies [DLB] and multisystem atrophy [MSA]). We also discuss the pharmacologic treatment of these disorders. METHODS: We report a selective review of the literature on FTLD, CBD, PSP, DLB, and MSA. RESULTS: The non-AD dementias can present with a wide variety of cognitive and behavioural symptoms. Through common clinical features and shared molecular etiologies, neurodegenerative disorders previously thought to be distinct are now classified into tauopathies and synucleinopathies. CONCLUSIONS: The unique cognitive and behavioural manifestations of the non-AD dementias can be mistaken for psychiatric disorders. Improved detection of tauopathies and synucleinopathies and their differentiation from AD is possible.|Alzheimer Disease/diagnosis[MESH]|Brain/pathology[MESH]|Dementia/diagnosis/*genetics/pathology[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Nerve Tissue Proteins/*genetics[MESH]|Synucleins[MESH]|Tauopathies/diagnosis/*genetics/pathology[MESH]|tau Proteins/*genetics[MESH] |
