Is Tau the Initial Pathology in Dopaminergic Nigrostriatal Degeneration? Studies in Parkinsonism and Parkinson’s Disease

Preprint: Here, the authors look at whether nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurodegeneration occurs independently of alpha-synuclein aggregation for those living with PD. Their findings suggest that it is independent and likely tau mediated.
