Astrocytic aSyn accumulations occur in several limbic regions of LB disease brains. a The astrocytic aSyn accumulations were encountered in the EC (SNCA G51D3), amygdala (DLB1), hippocampal CA4 (SNCA duplication) and insula (PDD5) regions of LB disorders. b The astrocytic accumulations showed morphological diversity, with the majority showing a star shape and labelling the ramified processes (cingulate cortex layers V–VI). c Some of the astrocytic aSyn appeared as cytoplasmic accumulations (hippocampal CA4).
