Abstract

In cases of multiple system atrophy (MSA), glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCI) were distributed randomly or present in large diffuse clusters (>1,600 μm in diameter) in most areas studied. These spatial patterns contrast with those reported for filamentous neuronal inclusions in the tauopathies and α‐synucleinopathies. © 2003 Movement Disorder Society

## Abstract Glial cytoplasmic inclusions are the pathological hallmark of multiple system atrophy. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the formation of glial cytoplasmic inclusions remain unclear. α‐Synuclein, a major component of glial cytoplasmic inclusions, has the ability to interact w
