Striatal dopamine transporter function is facilitated by converging biology of α-synuclein and cholesterol
Striatal dopamine transporters (DAT) powerfully regulate dopamine signalling, and can contribute risk to degeneration in Parkinson’s disease (PD). DATs can interact with the neuronal protein α-synuclein, which is associated with the aetiology and molecular pathology of idiopathic and familial PD. He...
