Vimentin network dysregulation mediates neurite deficits in SNCA duplication Parkinson’s patient–derived midbrain neurons
6 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
Duplication of the SNCA gene ( SNCA Dupl ), linked to elevated levels of α-synuclein (aSyn), is a genetic cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Our prior work with human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)–derived midbrain neurons generated from patients with PD SNCA Dupl identified neuritic deficits, accompanied by decreased levels of cytoskeletal element β-tubulin-III (bTubIII). To explore mechanisms underlying...
