New preprint 🥳 Gamma secretase isnt a single enzyme, multiple GSEC exist depending on which subunits are incorporated into the complex. We made PSEN1 & PSEN2 knockouts to study the impact of different GSEC in neurons & microglia Led by @celarber.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

In honor of #worldparkinsonsday, lets acknowledge some of the researchers and clinicians who have advanced our understanding of PD. Identified alpha-synuclein as a major component of Lewy bodies, clumps of proteins found in Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies.

Their commitment to matching gifts amplified the impact of every contribution, helping to further our mission and make a meaningful difference. We are deeply grateful for their leadership and generosity.
