Contribution of α‐synuclein cytopathologies to distinct seeding of misfolded α‐synuclein
This study investigated whether brain regions with distinct predominance of α‐synuclein (αSyn) cytopathologies show different αSyn seeding patterns in multiple system atrophy (MSA) and Lewy body disease (LBD), using an interdisciplinary approach. High seeding activity is observed in regions with oligodendrocytic‐predominant αSyn pathology in MSA.
