    Correlation between substantia nigra measurement and UPDRS

    N. Mohammadzade, F. Omrani, A. Habibi (Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran)

    Objective: Parkinson is mainly developed due to neurodegeneration of substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc).the aim of our study was to check if there is any correlation between the size…

    Targeted deep sequencing of brain DNA for detection of somatic point mutations in synucleinopathies

    M. Leija-Salazar, A. Pittman, K. Mokretar, A. Schapira, C. Proukakis (London, United Kingdom)

    Objective: To detect relevant somatic "point mutations" (single nucleotide variants- SNVs) in brain-derived DNA in synucleinopathies. Background: There is increasing recognition that neurons may harbour…
