α‐Synuclein fibrils explore actin‐mediated macropinocytosis for cellular entry into model neuroblastoma neurons
23 May 2022
Abstract excerpt
Alpha-synuclein (α-Syn), an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP), is associated with neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD or other α-synucleinopathies. Recent investigations propose the transmission of α-Syn protein fibrils, in a prion-like manner, by entering proximal cells to seed further fibrillization in PD. Despite the recent advances, the mechanisms by which extracellular protein...
