Impaired olfaction is an early symptom of Parkinson's disease. The underlying neuropathology likely includes alpha-synucleinopathy in the olfactory bulb at an earlier stage (Braak's stage1) than pathology in the substantia nigra, which is not observed until stage 3. In this report, we investigated the distribution and cell types affected by alpha-synuclein in the olfactory bulb of transgenic mice (2-8 months of...
