Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 IntroductionThe aggregation of the neuronal protein alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) is a key feature in the pathology of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Alpha-syn aggregation has been suggested to be induced in the gut cells by pathogenic gut microbes such as ...

Desulfovibrio Bacteria Are Associated With Parkinson’s Disease
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most prevalent movement disorder known and predominantly affects the elderly. It is a progressive neurodegenerative disease wherein α-synuclein, a neuronal protein, aggregates to form toxic structures in nerve cells.
