The cell-to-cell transmission of the major pathogenic proteins of Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease is reminiscent of the prion protein, which is defined as a proteinaceous infectious particle that causes human and animal transmissible spongiform encephalopathies.

Previously, we reported that intracranial inoculation of brain homogenate from multiple system atrophy (MSA) patient samples produces neurological disease in the transgenic (Tg) mouse model TgM83<sup>+/-</sup>, which uses the prion protein promoter to express human α-synuclein harboring the A53T mutation found in familial Parkinson's disease (PD).

Therefore, it is likely that PrPC-dependent and PrPC-independent pathways co-exist in Parkinson's disease.

Because of the features they share with the prion protein, PrP, the characteristics of pathogenic protein aggregates in several progressive brain disorders, including different types of Lewy body diseases (LBDs), such as Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), have been actively investigated.

In this review, we focus on methodological and conceptual approaches used to study scrapie and related PrP misfolding diseases in mice and how these approaches have advanced our understanding of related disorders including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

Amyloidogenic protein accumulation often occurs in the brain tissues, e.g. in Alzheimer's disease with the deposition of amyloid-beta and Tau, in scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy with the accumulation of prion protein, in Parkinson's disease with the deposition of alpha-synuclein.

We analyzed the genomic patterns of PrP gene from 528 subjects and found a predominance of Met/Met variant at codon 129 of PD subjects without significant difference (97.3%, and 96.5% in controls).

PrP (prion protein) binds copper, and this appears to be necessary for its normal function and might also reduce its probability of conversion into an infectious prion. alpha-Synuclein, a protein associated with Parkinson's disease, also binds copper, but, in this case, it potentially increases the rate at which the protein aggregates.

Here, we compared the expression of sHSPs in transgenic mouse models of fALS, Parkinson's disease (PD), dentato-rubral pallido-luysian atrophy (DRPLA) and Huntington's disease (HD); where the expression of mutant cDNA genes was under the transcriptional regulation of the mouse prion protein promoter.

No association between genotypes in codon 129 and IPD was detected in three distinct populations, suggesting that this PRNP polymorphism has no direct influence on the susceptibility to IPD.
