Abstract
C9orf72 repeat expansions are a common cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia. To date, no large-scale study of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) has been undertaken to assess the role of C9orf72 repeat expansions in the disease. Here, we investigated the prevalence of C9orf72 repeat expansions in a large cohort of DLB cases and identified no pathogenic repeat expansions in neuropathologically or clinically defined cases, showing that C9orf72 repeat expansions are not causally associated with DLB.

N1 - Funding Information: This work was supported in part by the National Institutes of Neurological Disease and Stroke. Jose Bras and Rita Guerreiro are supported by fellowships from the Alzheimer's Society. Tatiana Orme is supported by a scholarship from the Lewy Body Society. For the neuropathologically confirmed samples from Australia, tissues were received from the Sydney Brain Bank, which is supported by Neuroscience Research Australia and the University of New South Wales. This study was also partially funded by the Wellcome Trust, Medical Research Council, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, and Ontario Research Fund. The Nottingham Genetics Group is supported by ARUK and The Big Lottery Fund. The effort from Columbia University was supported by the Taub Institute, the Panasci Fund, the Parkinson's Disease Foundation, and NIH grants NS060113 (Dr Clark), P50AG008702 (P.I. Scott Small), P50NS038370 (P.I.R. Burke), and UL1TR000040 (P.I.H. Ginsberg). Dr Ross is supported by the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, NINDS R01# NS078086. The Mayo Clinic Jacksonville is a Morris K. Udall Parkinson's Disease Research Center of Excellence (NINDS P50 #NS072187) and is supported by The Little Family Foundation and by the Mangurian Foundation Program for Lewy Body Dementia research and the Alzheimer Disease Research Center (P50 AG016547). The work from the Mayo Clinic Rochester is supported by the National Institute on Aging (P50 AG016574 and U01 AG006786). This work has received support from The Queen Square Brain Bank at the UCL Institute of Neurology; where Dr Lashley is funded by an ARUK senior fellowship. Some of the tissue samples studied were provided by the MRC London Neurodegenerative Diseases Brain Bank and the Brains for Dementia Research project (funded by Alzheimer's Society and ARUK). This research was supported in part by both the NIHR UCLH Biomedical Research Centre and the Queen Square Dementia Biomedical Research Unit. This work was supported in part by the Intramural Research Program of the National Institute on Aging, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services; project AG000951-12. The University of Pennsylvania case collection is funded by the Penn Alzheimer's Disease Core Center (AG10124) and the Penn Morris K. Udall Parkinson's Disease Research Center (NS053488).
