Local vulnerability and global connectivity jointly shape neurodegenerative disease propagation
2018-10-24
Abstract excerpt
It is becoming increasingly clear that brain network organization shapes the course and expression of neurodegenerative diseases. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is marked by progressive spread of atrophy from the midbrain to subcortical structures and eventually, to the cerebral cortex. Recent discoveries suggest that the neurodegenerative process involves the misfolding and prion-like propagation of endogenous α -synu...
