Uncovering the Complexity of Synucleinopathies: An Ongoing Tale Between Proteins and Lipids
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are pathological states characterized by progressive alterations in brain homeostasis during aging. Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, are defined neuropathologically by the accumulation of inclusions known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Variants in GBA1, the gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, cause Gaucher disease and confer an increased risk for parkinsonism. Strategies using small molecules can improve the function of glucocerebrosidase in lysosomes. A clear understanding of the mechanism‐of‐action of these compounds will facilitate development of GBA1‐modulating

Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by predominantly neuronal α‐synuclein pathology and dopaminergic dysfunction. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) seeding amplification assays (SAA) detect α‐synuclein aggregates in vivo, but not all patients with PD have a positive SAA.

Inhibitory effect of Scutellaria pinnatifida Extracts on the Alpha synuclein Cytotoxicity
Many of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are associated with formation of the protein aggregates called amyloidal fibrils. Fibrillization of alpha-synuclein seems to be a key stage in the creation and progression of NDs and finding the compounds that ...

Abstract Background Transsynaptic α‐synuclein propagation plays a crucial role in the progression of Lewy body disease. We previously demonstrated that an α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid receptor antagonist, perampanel, blocks neuronal uptake of α‐synuclein preformed fibrils (PFFs) in an activity‐dependent manner.

Types of Pain in Multiple System Atrophy
Abstract Background Pain affects up to 87% of people with multiple system atrophy (MSA), but it remains unclear which types of pain contribute most to the overall burden. Objective To estimate the frequency of different types of pain in MSA individuals.

Abstract Background The cerebrospinal fluid alpha‐synuclein seed amplification assay (CSFasynSAA) detects alpha‐synuclein aggregation in over 90% of individuals with sporadic PD (sPD). However, the clinical characteristics of sPD with negative CSFasynSAA remain undefined.

Early Autonomic Burden in Prodromal Parkinson's Disease Predicts Cognitive Impairment
Abstract Background Autonomic dysfunction is a known contributor to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD), but its impact during prodromal stage is unknown. Objective The aim was to determine whether early autonomic burden predicts incident cognitive impairment in prodromal PD.

Plasma Glucosylsphingosine in GBA1 E365K, N409S, and L483P Heterozygous Mutation Carriers
Abstract Background GBA1 encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, with key substrates that include glucosylceramide and glucosylsphingosine. The E365K variant is the most common variant in GBA1 that is associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) but is not associated with Gaucher disease.
