Prolyl oligopeptidase inhibition by KYP-2407 increases alpha-synuclein fibril degradation in neuron-like cells

Growing evidence emphasizes insufficient clearance of pathological alpha-synuclein (αSYN) aggregates in the progression of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Consequently, cellular degradation pathways represent a potential therapeutic target. Prolyl oligopeptidase (PREP) is highly expressed in the brain and...
