α-Synuclein pathology disrupts mitochondrial function in dopaminergic and cholinergic neurons at-risk in Parkinson’s disease
2023-12-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Pathological accumulation of aggregated α-synuclein (aSYN) is a common feature of Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the mechanisms by which intracellular aSYN pathology contributes to dysfunction and degeneration of neurons in the brain are still unclear. A potentially relevant target of aSYN is the mitochondrion. To test this hypothesis, genetic and physiological methods were used to monitor...
