Protein aggregates were not detected in the basal ganglia of any of the MLS cases with Gall impregnation and immunohistochemistry for hyperphosphorylated tau, phosphorylated TDP‐43, phosphorylated alpha‐synuclein (α‐syn), Aβ, ubiquitin and p62 (Figure 4B–H). Here, TARDBP is linked to McLeod neuroacanthocytosis syndrome.
