Results from accumulation of extracellular amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide and deposition of intracellular tau aggregated tangles. The prognosis of AD and PD both is the onset of Dementia, which causes memory

Abstract: Frontotemporal lobe degeneration (FTLD) comprises a spectrum of clinical syndromes that includes multiple neurodegenerative disorders with different neuropathological pathways that lead to a common frontal and temporal lobe degeneration and share a similar complex phenotype, consisting of early-onset dementia with progressive deficits in behavior, language, motor and executive functions. Behavioral variant of frontotemporal lobe degeneration (bvFTLD) usually presents with disinhibition or apathy, loss of empathy, perseverative/compulsive behaviors, hyperorality and executive dysfunction, thus mimicking many psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessivecompulsive disorder or personality disorders, as there is a significant symptomatic overlap with these entities
