Actively transcribed messenger ribonucleic acids (mRNAs) were harvested from SNc dopaminergic neurons in aSYN monomer or PFF-injected mice 12 weeks post injection and then subjected to RNASeq analysis.
Influenza virus infection does not alter acute lung infection course in mice with Lrrk2 mutations. Surviving mice showed elevated neurodegeneration markers post-infection, suggesting a link between influenza and neurodegenerative diseases in humans.
