Abnormal alpha-synuclein reduces nigral voltage-dependent anion channel 1 in sporadic and experimental Parkinson's disease

Both the misfolding of α-synuclein and mitochondrial dysfunction are considered two major contributors to Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the relationship between the two in normal and PD states remains unclear. Here, we report that voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1), a major componen...
