LRP10 and α-synuclein transmission in Lewy body diseases.

ABSTRACT: Autosomal dominant variants in LRP10 have been identified in patients with Lewy body diseases (LBDs), including Parkinson's disease (PD), Parkinson's disease-dementia (PDD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Nevertheless, there is little mechanistic insight into the role of LRP10 in disease pathogenesis. In the brains of control individuals, LRP10 is typically expressed in non-neuronal cells like astrocytes and neurovasculature, but in idiopathic and genetic cases of PD, PDD, and DLB, it is also present in α-synuclein-positive neuronal Lewy bodies. These observations raise the questions of what leads to the accumulation of LRP10 in Lewy bodies and whether a possible interaction between LRP10 and α-synuclein plays a role in disease pathogenesis. Here, we demonstrate that wild-type LRP10
