LRRK2 kinase inhibition reverses G2019S mutation-dependent effects on tau pathology progression

Abstract Background Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the most common cause of familial Parkinson’s disease (PD). These mutations elevate the LRRK2 kinase activity, making LRRK2 kinase inhibitors an attractive therapeutic. LRRK2 kinase activity has been consistently linked to spe...
