  • Patent number: 10526651
    Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods for modulating expression of genes that function at the step of ER to Golgi trafficking. Compounds that modulate expression of these genes or activity of the encoded proteins can be used to inhibit alpha-synuclein mediated toxicity and used to treat or prevent synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease. Also disclosed are methods of identifying inhibitors of alpha-synuclein mediated toxicity.
    Type: Grant
