Protein aggregate formed by alpha-synuclein is the hallmark of a series of neurodegenerative disorders known as synucleinopathies (also known as Lewy body diseases), including Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy (MSA)(1). Globally PD alone affects the lives of more than 10 million people. In synucleinopathies, soluble, monomeric alpha-synuclein aggregates into fibrillar structures. The fibrillar alpha-synucleins, together with other protein aggregates, lipid, and damaged organelles constitute the insoluble inclusions, Lewy Bodies, seen in postmortem brain tissue from PD patients. The presence of both alphasynuclein oligomers and fibrils has been suggested to contribute to the cytotoxicity in the pathogenesis of synucleinopathies (2). Like many neurodegenerative diseases, the current treatment for PD and other synucleinopathies is palliative, aiming to control the symptoms with regrettably little impact on the progression of the disease. Alpha-synuclein fibrils represent an obvious therapeutic target given the possible role of these aggregates in the etiology of synucleinopathies. In this issue of the Proceedings, Murray et al.(3) report a new class of compounds with the ability to disaggregate alpha-synuclein fibrils both in vitro and in vivo.
