Evaluation of submandibular gland biopsies with RT-QuIC in Parkinson’s disease under investigation

2025-11-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The definite diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is usually made by the detection of α-synuclein aggregates in the brain post mortem with the rare exception of some genetic forms. Traces of α-synuclein aggregates in extracerebral tissue biopsies may serve as an appropriate biomarker to confirm a clinical diagnosis in vivo . <h4>Objectives</h4> We set out to determine whether the detectio...
