Abundant non-inclusion α-synuclein pathology in Lewy body-negative LRRK2-mutant cases

Nanna Møller Jensen, Zagorka Vitic, Mia R. Antorini, Tobias Bruun Viftrup, Laura Parkkinen, Poul Henning Jensen

The paper shows that LRRK2-mutant cases without Lewy bodies have abundant non-inclusion α-synuclein pathology detected by PLA, unlike Lewy body disease cases.

MJF-14 proximity ligation assay detects early non-inclusion alpha-synuclein pathology with enhanced specificity and sensitivity

Nanna Møller Jensen, YuHong Fu, Cristine Betzer, Hongyun Li, Sara Elfarrash, Ali Shaib, Donatus Krah, Zagorka Vitic, Lasse Reimer, Hjalte Gram, Vladimir L. Buchman, Mark Denham, Silvio O. Rizzoli, Glenda Margaret Halliday, Poul Henning Jensen

The paper introduces MJF-14 PLA, a proximity ligation assay for detecting non-inclusion alpha-synuclein aggregates with high specificity and sensitivity, showing pathology precedes Lewy body formation in Parkinson's disease.
