Mathias Jucker on Toxic Synuclein Corrupts Native in Wild-Type Mice

COMMENT These are very impressive results from Virginia Lee and colleagues, and build on the previous work of the same group. The fact that synthetic material can act as a seed in wild-type mice opens a myriad of experimental approaches and avoids confounding fac

Eliezer Masliah on Toxic Synuclein Corrupts Native in Wild-Type Mice

COMMENT This is a very important paper that further supports the role of a prion-like propagation of proteins involved in neurodegenerative disorders. This is the first study that has been able to show propagation of α-synuclein after a single injection in non-tr

Benjamin Dehay on Development and characterization of a new Parkinson's disease model resulting from impaired autophagy.

COMMENT Impairment of autophagy-lysosomal pathways is increasingly regarded as a major pathogenic event in neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease (PD). This new paper from Ishrat Ahmed and colleagues emphasizes once again that autophagy is an i
