GBA haploinsufficiency accelerates alpha-synuclein pathology with altered lipid metabolism in a prodromal model of Parkinson’s disease
26 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic (DA) cell loss and the accumulation of pathological alpha synuclein (asyn), but its precise pathomechanism remains unclear, and no appropriate animal model has yet been established. Recent studies have shown that a heterozygous mutation of glucocerebrosidase (gba) is one of the most important genetic risk factors in PD. To create mouse model for PD, we...
