“…Studies of DS also reported accumulation of alpha‐synuclein aggregates in Lewy bodies and neurites in neocortex and amygdala (Davidson et al, ; Lippa, Schmidt, Lee, & Trojanowski, ) and TDP‐43 in dentate gyrus granule cells (Davidson et al, ; Lippa et al, ). Though none of currently available amyloid PET ligands binds to tau, alpha‐synuclein, or TDP‐43 aggregates, the relationship of these lesions to amyloid is an important avenue of investigation, in relation to development of dementia in people with DS, especially if PET ligands specific for alpha‐synuclein and TDP‐43 are developed successfully (Mathis et al, ).…”
