Alpha-Synuclein and Its Role in Melanocytes

Alpha-Synuclein and Its Role in Melanocytes

Pigmentation is an important process in skin physiology and skin diseases and presumably also plays a role in Parkinson’s disease (PD). In PD, alpha-Synuclein (aSyn) has been shown to be involved in the pigmentation of neurons. The presynaptic protein is intensively investigated for its pathological...
