Abstract excerpt
Peripheral biomarkers indicative of brain pathology are critically needed for early detection of Parkinson's disease (PD). In this study, using NanoString and digital PCR technologies, we began by screening for alterations in genes associated with PD or atypical Parkinsonism in erythrocytes of PD patients, in which PD-related changes have been reported, and which contain ~ 99% of blood α-synuclein. Erythrocytic...
