Abstract
One of the most striking features of the intraneuronal inclusions of Alzheimer (AD) and Parkinson (PD) diseases is that, although they are derived from the neuronal cytoskeleton, they are fundamentally altered. Among these alterations is their insolubility in denaturants (Selkoe et al., 1982; Galloway et al., 1992) and it is our contention that the elucidation of the posttranslational modifications responsible for insolubilization will provide a fundamental insight into the cytopathology of AD and PD.
