Glial senescence enhances α-synuclein pathology owing to its insufficient clearance caused by autophagy dysfunction
Abstract Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the pathological accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) and loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. Aging is a significant risk factor for PD. The accumulation of senescent glial cells in the aged brain contributes to PD progression by...
