I discuss issues pertaining to the practice of neuropathology -- including nervous system tumors, neuroanatomy, neurodegenerative disease, muscle and nerve disorders, ophthalmologic pathology, neuro trivia, neuropathology gossip, job listings and anything else that might be of interest to a blue-collar neuropathologist.

Final posting on the JNEN review article
The bottom line here is that although PD, DLB, and MSA are all synucleinopathies, they differ from one another in terms of composition of the inclusions. And, even among different patient there are differences in protein compostion of each inclusion (i.e., not all brainstem Lewy bodies are created equal). These are very complex issues that are far from being understood.
