Extracellular high molecular weight α-synuclein oligomers induce cell death by disrupting the plasma membrane
Abstract α-Synuclein (αS), the causative protein of Parkinson’s disease and other α-synucleinopathies, aggregates from a low molecular weight form (LMW-αS) to a high molecular weight αS oligomer (HMW-αSo). Aggregated αS accumulates intracellularly, induces intrinsic apoptosis, is released extracellu...
