Yulan Xiong, associate professor of neuroscience at UConn Health, and her team have discovered one more piece of the puzzle of the genetic causes of Parkinson's Disease, paving the way for new treatment options.
Parkinson's symptoms mainly result from the death or impairment of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain's substantia nigra, a region involved in fine motor control. This is thought to be caused by Lewy bodies, which are abnormal clumps of protein mostly consisting of misfolded alpha-synuclein that travel between neurons.
