Lysosomal and synaptic dysfunction markers in longitudinal cerebrospinal fluid of de novo Parkinson's disease.

ABSTRACT: Lysosomal and synaptic dysfunctions are hallmarks in neurodegeneration and potentially relevant as biomarkers, but data on early Parkinson's disease (PD) is lacking. We performed targeted mass spectrometry with an established protein panel, assessing autophagy and synaptic function in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of drug-naïve de novo PD, and sex-/age-matched healthy controls (HC) cross-sectionally (88 PD, 46 HC) and longitudinally (104 PD, 58 HC) over 10 years. Multiple markers of autophagy, synaptic plasticity, and secretory pathways were reduced in PD. We added samples from prodromal subjects (9 cross-sectional, 12 longitudinal) with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder, revealing secretogranin-2 already decreased compared to controls. Machine learning identified neuronal pentraxin recepto
