Abstract excerpt
Abnormalities of alpha-synuclein (alpha-Syn) are mechanistically linked to Parkinson's disease (PD) and other alpha-synucleinopathies. To gain additional insights into the relationships between alpha-Syn expression and cell death, we examined the effects of expressing human alpha-Syn (Hualpha-Syn) variants on the cellular vulnerability to apoptotic stimuli. We show that the expression of wild-type (WT) and A30P...
