Background:The oligomeric state of ␣-syn in vivo remains unknown. Results: ␣-syn in the CNS and produced by erythrocytes, mammalian cells, and Escherichia coli exists predominantly as a disordered monomer. Conclusion: Native ␣-syn from various sources behaves as unstructured and monomeric. Significance: Stabilizing monomeric ␣-syn, lowering its levels, and/or inhibiting its fibrillization remain viable therapeutic strategies for Parkinson disease.
Taken together, our data show that RMPs have FXI-dependent procoagulant properties and are able to initiate and propagate TG. The anionic surface of RMPs might be the site of FXI-mediated TG amplification and intrinsic tenase and prothrombinase complex assembly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
