Study deciphers how misfolded protein drives dopaminergic neuron loss in Parkinson's

A so-called pathological protein long associated with Parkinson's disease has been found in a new study to trigger cells to increase protein synthesis, an event that eventually kills the subset of brain cells that die off in this neurodegenerative condition.
