JO - Movement disorders VL - 41 IS - 1 SN - 0885-3185 CY - New York, NY PB - Wiley M1 - DZNE-2026-00167 SP - 129 - 142 PY - 2026 AB - Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is a clinically defined syndrome with progressive movement and cortical dysfunction, caused by various underlying pathologies, most commonly tau-predominant pathologies such as progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration, or Alzheimer's disease (AD). Lewy-type α-synucleinopathies (LTS), TDP-43 proteinopathies, and mixed pathologies may also underlie CBS. The clinical impact of these pathologies remains poorly understood.To subclassify CBS patients in vivo using biomarkers for amyloid-β (Aβ), Tau, and α-synuclein (αSyn), and assess the clinical relevance of this stratification.We conducted a prospective cohort study of 50 CBS patients at LMU University Hospital Munich. Biomarker analysis included cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aβ42 and Aβ42/40, [18F]flutemetamol Aβ-PET, [18F]PI-2620 tau-PET, and αSyn seed amplification assays in CSF. CSF neurofilament light chain (NfL) served as a marker of neurodegeneration. Patients were stratified into six groups based on biomarker positivity.Tau positivity was found in 90 KW - Humans KW - Male KW - Female KW - Aged KW - Biomarkers: cerebrospinal fluid KW - Amyloid beta-Peptides: cerebrospinal fluid KW - Middle Aged KW - tau Proteins: cerebrospinal fluid KW - Positron-Emission Tomography KW - alpha-Synuclein: cerebrospinal fluid KW - alpha-Synuclein: metabolism KW - Prospective Studies KW - Corticobasal Degeneration: classification KW - Corticobasal Degeneration: cerebrospinal fluid KW - Corticobasal Degeneration: diagnostic imaging KW - Peptide Fragments: cerebrospinal fluid KW - Aged, 80 and over KW - proteinopathies (Other) KW - tau‐PET (Other) KW - α‐synuclein seed amplification assay (Other) KW - β‐amyloid (Other) KW - Biomarkers (NLM Chemicals) KW - Amyloid beta-Peptides (NLM Chemicals) KW - tau Proteins (NLM Chemicals) KW - alpha-Synuclein (NLM Chemicals) KW - Peptide Fragments (NLM Chemicals) KW - amyloid beta-protein (1-42) (NLM Chemicals) LB - PUB:(DE-HGF)16 C6 - pmid:41048081 C2 - pmc:PMC12882055 DO - DOI:10.1002/mds.70070 UR - https://pub.dzne.de/record/285043 ER -
