In vitro model to study A53T α-synuclein in PD
QPS Neuropharmacology
Different preformed recombinant human α-synuclein (α-syn) fibrils were evaluated for their toxicity and seeding properties on primary cortical neurons in vitro. Our results show that monomeric human α-syn has no impact on cell viability, while preformed wild type and A53T human α-syn fibrils have toxic effects on primary cortical neurons. This toxic effect was exceeded …

TSPO as sensitive biomarker for neuroinflammation in the Huntingon’s disease mouse model R6/2
QPS Neuropharmacology
Neuroinflammation is a growing field of research in the fight against neurodegenerative diseases and other disorders affecting the central nervous system. TSPO is an outer mitochondrial membrane protein, that has recently raised some interest for research in Huntington’s disease since its upregulation has been associated with the activation of glia cells. By labelling GFAP, Iba1, …
