Alpha Synuclein Toxicity and Non-Motor Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common multisystem neurodegenerative disorder affecting 1% of the population over the age of 60 years. The main neuropathological features of PD are the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta ...

p27Kip1 regulates alpha-synuclein expression
Alpha-synuclein (α-SYN) is the main component of anomalous protein aggregates (Lewy bodies) that play a crucial role in several neurodegenerative diseases (synucleinopathies) like Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy. However, the mechanisms involved in its transcriptional regulation are poorly understood.

No disease-modifying therapy is currently available for Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disease. The long nonmotor prodromal phase of PD is a window of opportunity for early detection and intervention.

Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health
This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.

How does crowding affect alpha-synuclein conformation?
Alpha-synuclein is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) located in presynaptic neurons. It has a leading role in the vesicle and neurotransmitter release and regulation.

The gut–brain axis is a bidirectional communication network between the intestines and brain, mediated by gut microbiota and exosomes, that regulates neuroinflammation, protein aggregation, and neuronal health processes central to neurodegenerative diseases.

Altered gene expression in the colon of young mice overexpressing alpha-synuclein
Background: Evidence supports that Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a disease of the gut-brain axis. Constipation is prevalent in patients with PD, and mice overexpressing human wild type alpha–synuclein (ASO) have delayed colonic transit in comparison to ...

Contribution of syndecans to cellular uptake and fibrillation of alpha-synuclein and tau [PDF]
Scientific evidence suggests that alpha-synuclein and tau have prion-like properties and that prionlike spreading and seeding of misfolded protein aggregates constitutes a central mechanism for neurodegeneration.

Alzheimer's Disease Co‐Pathology and Cognitive Impairment in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Objectives Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) share neuropathological features, including tau, amyloid, and TDP‐43 pathology. This study investigated whether AD‐related pathological changes are associated with cognitive impairment ALS. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF total‐tau, phosphorylated‐tau, beta‐amyloid) and plasma
