Later studies, addressing glial involvement in the degeneration process of LB-bearing neurons on the post-mortem brain of patients affected by dementia with LB (DLB), found that some LB present NF-κB immunopositivity (Togo et al., 2001), thus hinting that NF-κB may participate in the α-syn-deposition-dependent neuronal loss. Here, NFKB1 is linked to dementia.
