Abstract excerpt
Post mortem studies on familial and sporadic Parkinson's disease patient striatal tissue have shown that nearly 90% of α-synuclein deposited in Lewy-bodies is phosphorylated at serine-129 (pSyn-129) as opposed to only 4% in normal human brain. We aimed to find the influence of endogenous neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on α-synuclein phosphorylation, resting vesicles, and vesicular dopamine release. The...
