Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial dysfunction happens in both idiopathic (iPD) and LRRK2-related Parkinson's disease (LRRK2-PD). Nonetheless, previous studies suggested that a different type of mitochondrial pathology underlies the neurodegeneration in these two disorders. To further explore this hypothesis, we developed a novel multiplex digital PCR assay that allows the absolute quantification of cell-free mitochondrial DNA...
