Mitochondrial oxidant stress promotes α-synuclein aggregation and spreading in mice with mutated glucocerebrosidase

Abstract In this study, heterozygous expression of a common Parkinson-associated GBA1 variant, the L444P mutation, was found to exacerbate α-synuclein aggregation and spreading in a mouse model of Parkinson-like pathology targeting neurons of the medullary vagal system. These neurons were also shown...
