Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and Alzheimer disease (AD) show fibrillar aggregates.
•
Pin1 facilitates tau dephosphorylation playing a neuroprotective function.
•
A higher methylation in three CpG sites at PIN1 promoter was seen in FTD patients.
•
We found a lower gene expression of Pin1 in FTD patients than AD patients.
•
Pin1 has an important but distinct involvement in these two types of dementia.
