Inhibiting Aggregation of α-Synuclein with Human Single Chain Antibody Fragments
20 Feb 2004
Abstract excerpt
The alpha-synuclein protein has been strongly correlated with Parkinson's disease (PD) and is a major component of the hallmark Lewy body aggregates associated with PD. Two different mutations in the alpha-synuclein gene as well as increased gene dosage of wild-type alpha-synuclein all associate with early onset cases of PD; and transgenic animal models overexpressing alpha-synuclein develop PD symptoms....
