Alpha-synuclein (aSyn) is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the SNCA gene. Alpha-synuclein is a neuronal protein that regulates synaptic vesicle...

electric ray. The synuclein family includes three known proteins: alpha-synuclein, beta-synuclein, and gamma-synuclein. Interest in the synuclein family began...

radiating fibrils, the primary structural component of which is alpha-synuclein (α-synuclein). In 1910, Fritz Heinrich Lewy was studying in Berlin for his doctorate...

initial clinical manifestation of the disorder. A prion of the alpha-synuclein protein within affected neurons may cause MSA. About 55% of MSA cases...

Beta-synuclein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SNCB gene. The protein encoded by this gene is highly homologous to alpha-synuclein. These...

Gamma-synuclein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SNCG gene. Synuclein-gamma is a member of the synuclein family of proteins, which are believed...

diseases characterised by the abnormal accumulation of aggregates of alpha-synuclein protein in neurons, nerve fibres or glial cells. There are three main...

lungs and kidney, resulting high toxicity; as well, as death. Alpha-synuclein (α-synuclein) is an endogenous protein that is encoded by the SNCA gene and known...

Parkinson's disease-associated mutant alpha-synucleins through axons of cultured neurons. Membrane damage by alpha-synuclein could be another Parkinson's disease...

The cause of this cell death is poorly understood but involves alpha-synuclein aggregation into Lewy bodies within the neurons. Other possible factors...
