Differential Co-Expression between α-Synuclein and IFN-γ Signaling Genes across Development and in Parkinson’s Disease
10 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
Expression patterns of the alpha-synuclein gene (SNCA) were studied across anatomy, development, and disease to better characterize its role in the brain. In this postmortem study, negative spatial co-expression between SNCA and 73 interferon-γ (IFN-γ) signaling genes was observed across many brain regions. Recent animal studies have demonstrated that IFN-γ induces loss of dopamine neurons and nigrostriatal...
