α-Synuclein, Lrrk2 and Their Interplay In Parkinson‘s Disease
8 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
Of the various genetic factors contributing to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), only mutations in α-synuclein (α-syn) and LRRK2 genes cause clinical and neuropathological phenotypes closely resembling the sporadic cases. Therefore, studying the pathophysiological functions of these two PD-related genes is particularly informative in understanding the underlying molecular pathogenic mechanism of the...
