Clinical, pathophysiological and genetic features of motor symptoms in autosomal dominant Alzheimer’s disease

Aβ deposition in the basal ganglia is common in autosomal dominant Alzheimer’s disease. Vöglein et al. report an increased severity of motor symptoms in autosomal dominant versus sporadic disease in advanced disease stages. Motor symptoms are more severe in post-codon 200 presenilin 1 mutation carriers and correlate with basal ganglia Aβ.
