Oligomeric alpha-synuclein causes early synaptic dysfunction of the corticostriatal pathway associated with non-motor symptoms

Abstract In synucleinopathies, α-synuclein oligomers (OSyn) appear to be associated with neurodegeneration, neurotoxicity, and proinflammatory responses, even at low concentrations, suggesting their pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). We utilized a rat model of synucleinopa...
