Large-scale visualisation of α-synuclein oligomers in Parkinson's disease brain tissue
2024-02-19
Abstract excerpt
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative condition characterised by the presence in the brain of large intraneuronal aggregates, known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites, containing fibrillar α-synuclein. According to the amyloid hypothesis, these large end-stage species form from smaller soluble protein assemblies, often termed oligomers, which are proposed as early drivers of pathogenesis. To date, h...
