Reduced ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-1 expression levels in dementia with Lewy bodies

Parkinson disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are characterized by the accumulation of abnormal α-synuclein and ubiquitin in protein aggregates conforming Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-1 (UCHL-1) disassembles polyubiquitin chains to increase the availabil...
