Co-infection with two α-synuclein strains reveals novel synergistic interactions
2025-08-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> In synucleinopathies, the protein α-synuclein misfolds into Lewy bodies (LBs) in patients with Lewy body disease (LBD) or into glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs) in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA). The ability of a single misfolded protein to cause disparate diseases is explained by the prion strain hypothesis, which argues that protein conformation is a major determinant of disease...
