摘要
The authors recently demonstrated that genetic triplication of the SNCA locus causes Parkinson disease. Here it is shown that SNCA triplication results in a doubling in the amount of alpha-synuclein protein in blood. Examination of brain tissue showed a doubling in the level of SNCA message. However, at the protein level in brain, there was a greater effect on deposition of aggregated forms into insoluble fractions than on net expression of soluble alpha-synuclein.
