Downregulating α-synuclein in iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons mimics electrophysiological phenotype of the A53T mutation

2022-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common debilitating neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by a progressive loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons. Mutations, gene dosage increase, and single nucleotide polymorphisms in the α-synuclein-encoding gene SNCA either cause or increase the risk for PD. However, neither the function of α-synuclein in health and disease, nor its role throughout development is fully understood...
