Blinded RT‐QuIC Analysis of α‐Synuclein Biomarker in Skin Tissue From Parkinson's Disease Patients

Abstract

An unmet clinical need in Parkinson's disease (PD) is to identify biomarkers for diagnosis, preferably in peripherally accessible tissues such as skin. Immunohistochemical studies have detected pathological α‐synuclein (αSyn) in skin biopsies from PD patients albeit sensitivity needs to be improved.
