Evaluation of Stp2p-dependent alpha-Synuclein Toxicity in Yeast: Role of GAPDH? [PDF]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is linked to alpha-synuclein misfolding and aggregation in the substantia nigra par compacta cells of the brain. Discovering and characterizing factors that regulate alpha-synuclein misfolding and toxicity have high therapeutic ...

Aggregated Alpha-Synuclein Transfer Efficiently between Cultured Human Neuron-Like Cells and Localize to Lysosomes. [PDF]
Parkinson's disease and other alpha-synucleinopathies are progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by aggregates of misfolded alpha-synuclein spreading throughout the brain. Recent evidence suggests that the pathological progression is likely

Sleep dysfunction and EEG alterations in mice overexpressing alpha-synuclein. [PDF]
BackgroundSleep disruptions occur early and frequently in Parkinson's disease (PD). PD patients also show a slowing of resting state activity. Alpha-synuclein is causally linked to PD and accumulates in sleep-related brain regions.

Cardiac Alpha-Synuclein Is Present in Alpha-Synucleinopathies
Background: Alpha-synucleinopathies (AS) are characterized by pathologic aggregations of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) in the central nervous system, and comprise dementia with Lewy bodies, Parkinson’s disease, and multiple system atrophy. Previous studies on AS have reported findings of α-syn pathology in the peripheral nervous system of multiple organs ...

SPG4 and Dementia: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of disorders characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness, with mutations in SPG4/SPAST being the most common cause. Detailed studies and clinical and molecular comparisons across different populations are missing.

Ubiquitination of alpha-synuclein filaments by Nedd4 ligases. [PDF]
Alpha-synuclein can form beta-sheet filaments, the accumulation of which plays a key role in the development of Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies and multiple system atrophy.

A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility
ABSTRACT Seed amplification assays (SAAs) enable ultrasensitive detection of misfolded α‐synuclein across biofluids and tissues. Yet, heterogeneity in protocols limits cross‐study comparability and clinical translation. Here, we review α‐synuclein SAA methods and their performance across various biological matrices.

Alpha synuclein in hematopoiesis and immunity
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative condition and intracellular deposition of Lewy bodies in the substantia nigra (SN), which can cause dopaminergic neuronal death, is the hallmark of this syndrome. α-synuclein (syn) is a
