1 Jul 2001
Abstract excerpt
Although alpha-synuclein is expressed primarily in neurons, it is a major component of oligodendroglial and astrocytic inclusions in several neurodegenerative diseases. Recent study has further demonstrated that alpha-synuclein is expressed in cultured rat oligodendrocytes. We determined whether alpha-synuclein might be expressed in astrocytic cells. alpha-Synuclein mRNA and protein were detected in U251 human...
