摘要:
The present invention refers to a newly discovered gene named KASPP for Kinase Associated with Parkinsonism with Pleiomorphic Pathology or alternatively named LRRK2 for Leucine-Rich Repeat Kinase 2, its production, biochemical characterization and use for the detection and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson disease (PD) including, without limitation, sporadic PD, Alzheimer disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and other synucleinopathies and/or tauopathy as well as several polymorphisms and mutations in the KASPP/LRRK2 gene segregated with PD.
摘要:
Aspects featured in the invention relate to compositions and methods for inhibiting alpha-synuclein (SNCA) gene expression, such as for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. An anti- SNCA agent featured herein that targets the SNCA gene can have been modified to alter distribution in favor of neural cells.
