Abstract excerpt
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder mainly characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons from the substantia nigra. Affected neurons exhibit intracellular aggregates primarily composed of misfolded and phosphorylated alpha-synuclein (aSyn). In pathological conditions, this presynaptic protein has been shown to be transmitted from cell to cell in a prion-like manner, which contributes to th...
