Modeling Parkinson's disease‐related symptoms in alpha‐synuclein overexpressing mice
1 Jun 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Intracellular deposition of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites is a central event in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other α-synucleinopathies. Transgenic mouse models overexpressing human α-syn, are useful research tools in preclinical studies of pathogenetic mechanisms. Such mice develop α-syn inclusions as well as neurodegeneration with a topographical...
