Revisiting the specificity and ability of phospho-S129 antibodies to capture alpha-synuclein biochemical and pathological diversity

Christian Iseli, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Hilal Lashuel, Anass Chiki, Ramanath Narayana Hegde, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Ritwik Burai, Sean Michael Deguire, Melek Firat Altay, Sonia Donzelli, Jonathan Jean-Pierre Ricci, Ahmed Sherif Saad Zaghloul Mohamed Sadek, Salvatore Novello, Pedro José Santana Ribeiro Magalhães, Yllza Jasiqi

Antibodies against phosphorylated alpha-synuclein (aSyn) at 5129 have emerged as the primary tools to investigate, monitor, and quantify aSyn pathology in the brain and peripheral tissues of patients with Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative dis ...

N-terminal mutant huntingtin deposition correlates with CAG repeat length and symptom onset, but not neuronal loss in Huntington's disease

Hilal Lashuel, Lorène Aeschbach, Nathan Alain Denis Riguet

Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by a CAG repeat expansion mutation in the gene encoding the huntingtin (Htt) protein, with mutant Htt protein subsequently forming aggregates within the brain. Mutant Htt is a current target for novel therapeutic strateg ...

An integrative approach to elucidate the mechanisms and dynamics of Huntingtin aggregation and inclusion formation in neuronal models of Huntington's Disease

Nathan Alain Denis Riguet

Despite the fact that the gene responsible for Huntington's disease (HD) is known, we still do not understand the underlying mechanisms leading to neurodegeneration and death. Identifying and understanding the mechanisms controlling mutant huntingtin (mHtt ...

Cell Type-Specific Membrane Potential Changes in Dorsolateral Striatum Accompanying Reward-Based Sensorimotor Learning

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Tanya C Sippy

The striatum integrates sensorimotor and motivational signals, likely playing a key role in reward-based learning of goal-directed behavior. However, cell type-specific mechanisms underlying reinforcement learning remain to be precisely determined. Here, w ...

The role of medial amygdala inhibitory neurons in regulating social behavior

Aiste Baleisyte

Aggression is an evolutionary conserved social behavior that is necessary for an animalÂŽs survival. The neural substrates coordinating aggression are known to exist in the amygdala and the hypothalamus. While the medial amygdala (MeA) and the ventrolatera ...

Alpha-synuclein research: defining strategic moves in the battle against Parkinson's disease

Hilal Lashuel

With the advent of the genetic era in Parkinson's disease (PD) research in 1997, alpha-synuclein was identified as an important player in a complex neurodegenerative disease that affects >10 million people worldwide. PD has been estimated to have an econom ...

A New Chemoenzymatic Semisynthetic Approach Provides Insight into the Role of Phosphorylation beyond Exon1 of Huntingtin and Reveals N-Terminal Fragment Length-Dependent Distinct Mechanisms of Aggregation

Hilal Lashuel, Andreas Reif, Jonathan Jean-Pierre Ricci, Gopinath Pushparathinam, Rajasekhar Kolla

Huntington’s disease is a neurodegenerative dis- order caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine repeat (>36Q) in the N-terminal domain of the huntingtin protein (Htt), which renders the protein or fragments thereof more prone to aggregate and form inclus ...

Alpha-Synuclein oligomerization and aggregation: All models are useful but only if we know what they model This is the reply to a comment "Alpha-synuclein oligomerization and aggregation: A model will always be a model" on the original article "Monitoring alpha-synuclein oligomerization and aggregation using bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays: What you see is not always what you get". The articles are accompanied by a Preface "How good are cellular models?"

Hilal Lashuel

Alpha-synuclein oligomerization is one of the early events on the pathway to Lewy body formation. Therefore, interfering with this process holds tremendous potential for developing therapies that block alpha-Syn pathology formation and toxicity. The develo ...

Reverse engineering Lewy bodies: how far have we come and how far can we go?

Hilal Lashuel, Mohamed Bilal Fares, Somanath Jagannath

Lewy bodies (LBs) are α-synuclein (α-syn)-rich intracellular inclusions that are an important pathological hallmark of Parkinson disease and several other neurodegenerative diseases. Increasing evidence suggests that the aggregation of α-syn has a central ...

An integrative multi-omics approach reveals new central nervous system pathway alterations in Alzheimer's disease

Christopher Clark

Background Multiple pathophysiological processes have been described in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Their inter-individual variations, complex interrelations, and relevance for clinical manifestation and disease progression remain poorly understood. We hypot ...

Lewy body-associated proteins: Victims, instigators, or innocent bystanders? The case of AIMP2 and alpha-synuclein

Hilal Lashuel, Salvatore Novello

Lewy bodies (LBs), one of the neuropathological defining hallmarks of Parkinson's disease (PD), are composed of a complex mixture of alpha-synuclein (aSyn) filaments and hundreds of proteins, lipids, and membranous organelles. However, these proteins' role ...
