α-Synuclein conformational strains spread, seed and target neuronal cells differentially after injection into the olfactory bulb

Abstract Alpha-synuclein inclusions, the hallmarks of synucleinopathies, are suggested to spread along neuronal connections in a stereotypical pattern in the brains of patients. Ample evidence now supports that pathological forms of alpha-synuclein propagate in cell culture models and in vivo in a p...
