Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Alejandra Lucia Marcos"

  • - Alejandra Lucia Marcos's research primarily focuses on the role of the ATP13A2 gene (P5B-ATPase) in various neurodegenerative disorders, particularly its connection to Parkinson's Disease and related conditions.
  • - Her 2019 study identifies mutations in ATP13A2 as influential in lipid homeostasis and explores their implications for neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinoses and hereditary spastic paraplegia, expanding the genetic understanding of these disorders.
  • - Throughout her work, she emphasizes the importance of the endo-lysosomal pathway in the pathology of these diseases, highlighting the potential for ATP13A2 as a critical target for therapeutic interventions.
