Authors Brás IC, Outeiro TF Journal Cells Citation Cells 2021, 10(2), 375. Abstract The accumulation of misfolded alpha-synuclein (aSyn) throughout the brain, as Lewy pathology, is a phenomenon central to Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathogenesis. The stereotypical distribution and evolution of the pathology during disease is often attributed to the cell-to-cell

Authors Möbius W, Hümmert S, Ruhwedel T, Kuzirian A, Gould R Journal Life Citation Life. 2021; 11(2):136. Abstract Although myelinated nervous systems are shared among 60,000 jawed vertebrates, studies aimed at understanding myelination have focused more and more on mice and zebrafish. To obtain a broader understanding of the myelination
