Linking Alpha-Synuclein to the Actin Cytoskeleton: Consequences to Neuronal Function
12 Aug 2020
Abstract excerpt
Alpha-Synuclein (αSyn), a protein highly enriched in neurons where it preferentially localizes at the pre-synapse, has been in the spotlight because its intraneuronal aggregation is a central phenomenon in Parkinson's disease. However, the consequences of αSyn accumulation to neuronal function are not fully understood. Considering the crucial role of actin on synaptic function and the fact that dysregulation of...
