α‐Synuclein induces apoptosis by altered expression in human peripheral lymphocytes in Parkinson’s disease
2 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
Though the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) remains unclear, alpha-synuclein (alpha-SN) is regarded as a major causative agent of PD. Several lines of evidence indicate that immunological abnormalities are associated with PD for unknown reasons. The present study was performed to assess whether peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) show altered alpha-SN expression in PD patients and to identify its...
