FBXO7 Immunoreactivity in α-Synuclein—Containing Inclusions in Parkinson Disease and Multiple System Atrophy

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the gene encoding the F-box only protein 7 (FBXO7) cause PARK15, an autosomal recessive form of juvenile parkinsonism. Although the brain pathology in PARK15 patients remains unexplored, in vivo imaging displays severe loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic terminals. Understanding the pathogenesis of PARK15 might therefore illuminate the mechanisms of the selective dopaminergic neuronal degeneration,...
