Abstract | BACKGROUND: OBJECTIVE: DESIGN AND SETTING: RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that the epitope profiles of alpha-synuclein in LBs are similar, regardless of whether the biological trigger is related to synuclein or a different genetic pathway. These findings support the hypothesis that the mechanism of alpha-synuclein aggregation is the same within cell types but distinctive between cell types.
