New publication from Jensen's Lab
Assistant Professors Nelson Ferreira and Nádia Pereira Gonçalves from Poul Henning Jensen and Christian Bjerggaard Vægter laboratories, respectively, have published a paper entitled “Trans synaptic spreading of alpha synuclein pathology through sensory afferents leads to sensory nerve degeneration and neuropathic pain” in Acta Neuropathologica Communications.
Their findings show a link between the transneuronal propagation of α-Syn pathology with sensory neuron dysfunction and neuropathic impairment, suggesting promising avenues of investigation into the mechanisms underlying pain in Parkinson’s Disease.
