Scientists have used computer simulations to uncover the mechanism behind the buildup of proteins in Parkinson's disease. The study found that a protein called alpha-synuclein, which is known to accumulate in the brains of Parkinson's patients, can form clusters and spread throughout the brain. The researchers also identified a specific region of the protein that is responsible for its aggregation. These findings could help in the development of new treatments for Parkinson's disease.
