Lysosomal dysfunction increases exosome-mediated alpha-synuclein release and transmission

Abstract:

Alpha synuclein aggregation plays a central role in Parkinson's disease pathology. Direct transmission of alpha synuclein from pathologically affected to healthy unaffected neurons may be important in the anatomical spread of the disease through the nervous system. We have demonstrated that exosomes released from alpha synuclein over-expressing SH-SY5Y cells contained alpha synuclein and these exosomes were capable of efficiently transferring alpha synuclein protein to normal SH-SY5Y cells.
