Abstract
Parkinson's Disease
In article number 2413451, Zhentao Zhang and co-workers show that microglia process α-synuclein fibrils to generate novel fibrils with enhanced toxicity, promoting the onset and progression of Parkinson's disease. α-Synuclein fibrils enter microglia through TREM2. Then they are processed by asparagine endopeptidase to produce α-synuclein 1-103 fibrils, which are more toxic than naive α-synuclein fibrils. These results show that blocking the aberrant activity of microglia halts the progression of Parkinson's disease.
