LRRK2 inhibition does not impart protection from α-synuclein pathology and neuron death in non-transgenic mice

Abstract Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are one of the most common causes of familial Parkinson’s disease (PD). The most common mutations in the LRRK2 gene induce elevated kinase activity of the LRRK2 protein. Recent studies have also suggested that LRRK2 kinase activity may be el...
