Kinase inhibition of G2019S-LRRK2 restores autolysosome formation and function to reduce endogenous alpha-synuclein intracellular inclusions
2019-07-18
Abstract excerpt
The Parkinson’s disease (PD)-associated kinase Leucine-Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2) is a potent modulator of autophagy and impacts on lysosome biology and function, but unclarity exists on the precise mechanics of its role and the direction of this modulation. LRRK2 is also involved in the degradation of pathological alpha-synuclein, with pathogenic mutations precipitating neuropathology in cellular and animal mod...
