The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Alpha synuclein, tau, synphilin, and APOE genotypes were analyzed in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and controls. The predisposing effect of the tau insertion polymorphism to the development of PSP is confirmed. However, no effect of alpha -synuclein, synphilin, or APOE variability on the development of PSP, or of tan, alpha -synuclein, APOE, or synphilin gene variability on the development of MSA, are demonstrated.
