Our Parkinson's Place: Conformation-Specific Alpha-Synuclein Antibody for Research into Parkinson’s Disease

I HAVE PARKINSON'S DISEASES AND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE A PLACE WHERE THE CONTENTS OF UPDATED NEWS IS FOUND IN ONE PLACE. THAT IS WHY I BEGAN THIS BLOG.

I COPY NEWS ARTICLES PERTAINING TO RESEARCH, NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR PARKINSON'S DISEASE, DEMENTIA, THE BRAIN, DEPRESSION AND PARKINSON'S WITH DYSTONIA. I ALSO POST ABOUT FUNDRAISING FOR PARKINSON'S DISEASE AND EVENTS. I TRY TO BE UP-TO-DATE AS POSSIBLE.

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT'S CONTENTS. I AM JUST A COPIER OF INFORMATION SEARCHED ON THE COMPUTER. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THE COPIES ARE JUST THAT, COPIES AND AT TIMES, I AM UNABLE TO ENLARGE THE WORDING OR KEEP IT UNIFORMED AS I WISH. IT IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND I AM A PERSON WITH PARKINSON'S DISEASE. I HAVE NO MEDICAL EDUCATION,

I JUST WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU WHAT I READ ON THE INTERNET. IT IS UP TO YOU TO DECIDE WHETHER TO READ IT AND TALK IT OVER WITH YOUR DOCTOR. I AM JUST THE COPIER OF DOCUMENTS FROM THE COMPUTER. I DO NOT HAVE PROOF OF FACT OR FICTION OF THE ARTICLE. I ALSO TRY TO PLACE A LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF EACH ARTICLE TO SHOW WHERE I RECEIVED THE INFORMATION SO THAT YOU MAY WANT TO VISIT THEIR SITE.

THIS IS A FREE SITE FOR ALL WITH NO ADVERTISEMENTS

THANK YOU FOR VISITING! TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Conformation-Specific Alpha-Synuclein Antibody for Research into Parkinson’s Disease

Introduction

In the brains of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, misfolding and aggregation of native alpha-synuclein occurs, resulting in the formation of filamentous Lewy bodies. Aggregated alpha-synuclein can be detected by anti-alpha synuclein filament antibody (ab209530), which is a conformation-specific antibody.

Anti-alpha synuclein filament antibody [MJFR14-6-4-2] (ab209538):

Developed with experts in the field – Developed and tested in partnership with The Michael J Fox Foundation (MJFF).
Conformation-specific - Alpha-synuclein filaments/fibrils consisting of Lewy bodies are specifically labeled.
Specific, reproducible, and reliable - A recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody produced using RabMAb® technology ensures reliability, reproducibility, and specificity of the supply.
Suitable for studying other synucleinopathies - This antibody can also be used in the study of other synucleinopathies such as multiple system atrophy (MSA) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).
