Why are α-synuclein aggregates in Parkinson’s disease (PD) toxic at the cell biological level? Our new study shows that α-syn fibrils hijack the ESCRT membrane repair system, triggering a feedback loop that worsens aggregation. You can find it at: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

A new preprint from CRN Team Harper found that the depletion of ESCRT-III weakens membranes, allowing alpha-synuclein aggregates to spread and cause damage. Authors: @harperlabhms.bsky.social @harvardcellbio.bsky.social @pelletfraction.bsky.social 🔗 Check out the full #preprint: shorturl.at/69Ha6
