Article Synopsis
  • Alpha-synuclein seed amplification assays (αSyn-SAAs) are emerging diagnostic tools for Parkinson's disease that detect misfolded proteins and amplify their signals through an in vitro process.* -
  • Recent studies demonstrate that various biospecimens, such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), skin, and submandibular glands, can effectively differentiate between Parkinson's patients and healthy individuals using these assays.* -
  • To improve assay reliability and reduce variability, a new high-yield purification protocol for αSyn protein was developed, resulting in significant yields and enhanced performance in distinguishing between disease and control tissues.*
