Mutations in the tau gene that cause an increase in three repeat tau and frontotemporal dementia

The majority of cases with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) have no tau deposition in the brain, yet mutations in the tau gene lead to a similar clinical phenotype with insoluble tau depositing in neuropathological lesions. We report two tau gene mutations at positions +19 and +29, in the intronic sequ...
