α-Synuclein strain propagation is independent of cellular prion protein expression in a transgenic synucleinopathy mouse model
12 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
The cellular prion protein, PrPC, has been postulated to function as a receptor for α-synuclein, potentially facilitating cell-to-cell spreading and/or toxicity of α-synuclein aggregates in neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease. Previously, we generated the "Salt (S)" and "No Salt (NS)" strains of α-synuclein aggregates that cause distinct pathological phenotypes in M83 transgenic mice...
