Published in 2024 at "European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging"

DOI: 10.1007/s00259-024-06806-7

Abstract: There is an unmet need for compounds to detect fibrillar forms of alpha-synuclein (αSyn) and 4-repeat tau, which are critical in many neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we aim to develop an efficient surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Nature Communications"

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-22108-0

Abstract: The molecular architecture of α-Synuclein (α-Syn) inclusions, pathognomonic of various neurodegenerative disorders, remains unclear. α-Syn inclusions were long thought to consist mainly of α-Syn fibrils, but recent reports pointed to intracellular membranes as the major… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Nature Communications"

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-46538-8

Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is closely linked to α-synuclein (α-syn) misfolding and accumulation in Lewy bodies. The PDZ serine protease HTRA1 degrades fibrillar tau, which is associated with Alzheimer’s disease, and inactivating mutations to mitochondrial HTRA2… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Science"

DOI: 10.1126/science.adp3645

Abstract: Neuronal accumulation and spread of pathological α-synuclein (α-syn) fibrils are key events in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathophysiology. However, the neuronal mechanisms underlying the uptake of α-syn fibrils remain unclear. In this work, we identified FAM171A2… read more here.
