Progressive loss of cortical acetylcholinesterase activity in association with cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease: a positron emission tomography study.

abstract：:In CAG repeat diseases, affected neurons possess many cytoplasmic granules immunopositive for expanded polyglutamine stretches. Electron microscopic immunohistochemistry showed that the granules corresponded to lysosomes of primitive type. The results suggest that, in addition to the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway, muta...
