Major clinical features and global measures were systematically evaluated and compared in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and Parkinson's disease (PD). In addition to gaze palsy and early postural instability in PSP, absence of levodopa-induced dyskinesia, frontalis muscle overactivity, primiti

The topographic distribution of brain atrophy was quantified by image analysis of fixed coronal brain slices from 12 patients dying with Huntington's disease (HD) and from 4 other patients dying with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). In HD, atrophy was maximal within the caudate nucleus, putamen
Two extended haplotypes of the tau gene (H1 and H2) have been described. The frequency of H1 haplotype is increased in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). PSP is associated with filamentous tau lesions in neurons and glia, which are reportedly composed exclusively of tau isoforms with four repeats
## Abstract Progressive supranuclear palsyβparkinsonism (PSPβP) is a primary tauopathy characterised by neurofibrillary degeneration, which is frequently mistaken for Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and vascular parkinsonism (VP) at presentation. The aim of this study was t
