Health | A protein called alpha-synuclein is known to accumulate abnormally in plaques in AD, in Lewy bodies in Lewy body disease and Parkinson's disease, and in a number of other diseases that are collectively called synucleinopathies. (references) | |
Similarly, many PD patients develop dementia and have neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques like those found in AD. A further indication of overlap is Lewy body disease, a neurodegenerative disorder whose clinical signs occupy a middle ground between AD on the one hand and PD on the other. (references) | ||
Transgenic mice overexpressing the protein had problems with motor function similar to those found in Parkinson's disease (Masliah et al., 2000). These findings suggested that increased amounts or accumulation of alpha-synuclein within neurons may play an important role in the development of pathology seen in Parkinson's disease and related disorders such as Lewy body disease.
