(A) On the left, hemi-brain from individual III-1 of family 476 diagnosed with FTD showing marked frontal and anterior temporal lobe atrophy. On the right, a coronal slice showing severely dilated lateral ventricles with narrowed gyri and widened sulci; (B) ubiquitin-positive, tau-negative inclusions in the superficial laminae of the middle frontal gyrus (arrow, scale bar = 10 nm); (C) high power photomicrograph of a neuronal cytoplasmic inclusion; (D) high power photomicrograph of a dystrophic neurite in the neuropil; (E) high power photomicrograph of a neuronal intranuclear inclusion (C -E, bar = 5 nm); (F) Ubiquitin-positive cytoplasmic inclusions in motor neurons of the lower medulla-spinal cord (arrow, bar = 50 nm); (G) higher power photomicrograph of a neuron containing a cluster of Bunina body-like inclusions; (H) higher power photomicrograph of a loosely aggregated cytoplasmic inclusion (G & H, ubiquitin immunohistocemistry, bar = 5 nm).
