Linking Parkinson's Disease and Melanoma: Interplay Between α‐Synuclein and Pmel17 Amyloid Formation

22 May 2021

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with the death of dopaminergic neurons within the substantia nigra of the brain. Melanoma is a cancer of melanocytes, pigmented cells that give rise to skin tone, hair, and eye color. Although these two diseases fundamentally differ, with PD leading to cell degeneration and melanoma leading to cell proliferation, epidemiological evidence has...
