    Targeted over-expression with AAV-mediated human α-synuclein in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease – Validation of novel fine motor functional effects

    R. Pussinen, T. Ahtoniemi, T. Huhtala, O. Kontkanen, A. Nurmi (Kuopio, Finland)

    Objective: Targeted over-expression of human α-synuclein using viral-vector mediated gene delivery into the substantia nigra of rats and non-human primates has been reported to lead…
