Characterization of the molecular interaction between α-synuclein and prion protein
(2024-03-21)The interaction between α-synuclein (aSyn) and prion protein (PrP) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of synucleinopathies. However, the nature of this interaction remains poorly understood. Here, we employed a ... -
The role of RNA in synapse physiology and neurodegeneration in models of Parkinson’s disease
(2022-06-14)Synaptic dysfunction is an early alteration in multiple neurodegenerative disorders. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterised by the accumulation of α-synuclein (αsyn) in pathological inclusions known as Lewy bodies ... -
Analysis of the mechanisms of interaction of alpha-synuclein and membranes in cellular models of Parkinson´s Disease
(2018-12-04)Alpha-synuclein (aSyn) plays a crucial role in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and other synucleinopathies, since it misfolds and accumulates in typical proteinaceous inclusions known as Lewy bodies. The physiological function ... -
Genetic and Pharmacological Modulation of Alpha-Synuclein Aggregation
(2017-07-18)Several neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), are characterized by the deposition of misfolded and aggregated forms of a particular protein in different areas of the brain. Understanding the molecular ...
