The protofibrils can further aggregate and precipitate as amyloid fibrils that are present in Lewy bodies, the hallmark of sporadic, late-onset PD PubMed:14556719

In the vast majority of patients, some of the remaining nigral dopaminergic neurons exhibit aggregated proteins in the form of cytoplasmic LB inclusions PubMed:14556719

Accumulation of ubiquitin conjugates and/or inclusion bodies associated with ubiquitin, proteasome, and certain disease-characteristic proteins have been reported in a broad array of chronic neurodegenerative diseases, such as the neurofibrillary tangles of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), brainstem Lewy bodies (LBs) (the neuropathological hallmark in Parkinson’s disease [PD]), Bunina bodies in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), and nuclear inclusions in CAG repeat expansion (polyglutamine/Q extension) disorders such as Huntington’s disease, Spinocerebellar Ataxias (SCAs), and Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy (SBMA; Kennedy’s disease) (reviewed recently by Alves-Rodrigues et al., 1998; Sherman and Goldberg, 2001) (Figure 2) PubMed:14556719

Interestingly, with a few exceptions, AR-JP is characterized by a lack of LBs PubMed:14556719

AR-JP is characterized by lack of LBs and alphaSYN aggregates PubMed:14556719
