A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.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.
