Frontotemporal dementia and language networks: cortical thickness reduction is driven by dyslexia susceptibility genes

Variations within genes associated with dyslexia result in a language network vulnerability, and in patients with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), language disturbances represent a disease core feature. Here we explored whether variations within three related-dyslexia genes, namely KIAA0319, DCDC2, an...
