Consistent with this argument are the results for participants with semantic variant PPA showed little improvement for untrained items, which could conceivably reflect differential effects of pathology (TDP-43 proteinopathy in semantic variant PPA vs. AD pathology in logopenic PPA); however, we would argue it more likely reflects greater loss of semantic storage of items in semantic variant PPA, reflecting the importance of a semantic hub for lexical recall in the ATL (Visser et al., 2010). Here, TARDBP is linked to primary progressive aphasia.
