An assessment of mammalian ATG8 orthologues in the spinal cord and cortical tissue from PD and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) patients found that ~40% of LBs were immune-positive for LC3-II [183], whereas only ~15% stained positive for GABARAP/GABARAPL1. The gene discussed is GABARAPL2; the disease is Lewy body dementia.
