Synapse and aSyn

(Calleri, 2015 #1185 review): In PD brain, 90% or even more of α-syn aggregates in the brain of PD patients are located in the presynapses in the form of very small deposits. In parallel, dendritic spines are retracted, whereas the presynapses are relatively preserved, suggesting that neurotransmitter deprivation is an early event in PD pathogenesis.

20231116: successfully detected size distribution of recombinant fibrils of α-syn, work to assess feasibility of detecting multimers in biofluid is still ongoing.
Goal: current efforts in biofluid rely on enrichment with specific antibodies (eg TAK-341). Optimal reagents for enrichment will need to be identified if feasibility looks promising.

Current feasibility testing
Initial feasibility run is ongoing (readout expected Feb2024) using several anti-α-synuclein antibodies for enrichment of α-syn oligomers and PD CSF
Depending on the outcome of the initial feasibility run, additional feasibility runs may be performed using alternative anti-α-synuclein antibodies and additional PD CSF samples (Q2 2024)
We will also be developing LCMS to look at fragments of α-syn and pS129
paSyn / Fragments / LBBind in PM (else IB?)
As we do not currently know the identity of the toxic species of α-syn, it is difficult to predict the outcome of treatment with such compounds, which may inadvertently result in an increase in the toxic species; Fibrillar dissociation could, for example, lead to oligomers a-syn release and its downstream effects.

PD vs MSA / DLB ? (SPAL?)

content
MSACell to cell generating in PD occurs via the neuronal connectome.
αSYN in MSA is mainly localized to oligodendrocytes.
The oligodendrocyte connectome is nearly identical to the neuronal connectome (discussed with Alain Dagher and others at the MJFF αSYN conference). αSYN filament structure is different between PD, MSA and DLB (Schweinghouse, 2020 #2960). This risk was mitigated by AZ showing that MEDI-1141 can bind to MSA aggregates.
