Alpha-synuclein expression in neuron modulates the Japanese encephalitis virus infection
2023-09-26
Abstract excerpt
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) stands as a prominent vector-borne zoonotic pathogen, displaying neurotropism and eliciting Parkinson’s disease (PD)-like symptoms among most symptomatic survivors. A characteristic feature of PD is aggregation of mutated α-synuclein (α-syn) that damages the dopaminergic neurons. Considering this link between JEV-induced PD-like symptoms and α-syn pathogenesis, we explored the rol...
