The Concept of α-Synuclein Strains and How Different Conformations May Explain Distinct Neurodegenerative Disorders
In the past few years, an increasing amount of studies primarily based on experimental models have investigated the existence of distinct α-synuclein strains and their different pathological effects. This novel concept could shed light on the heterogeneous nature of α-synucleinopathies, a group of d...
