In Vivo Protein Complementation Demonstrates Presynaptic α-Synuclein Oligomerization and Age-Dependent Accumulation of 8–16-mer Oligomer Species

Summary: Intracellular accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) and formation of Lewy bodies are neuropathological characteristics of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and related α-synucleinopathies. Oligomerization and spreading of α-syn from neuron to neuron have been suggested as key events contributing to th...
