BACKGROUND: Alpha-Synuclein (SNCA) is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (1, 2) . It is a cytoplasmic protein that is predominantly expressed in the central nervous system (2) . SNCA reduces neuronal responsiveness to various apoptotic stimuli, leading to the decreased caspase-3 activation. SNCA may be involved in the regulation of dopamine release and transport and induces fibrillization of microtubule-associated protein tau (3) . Defects in SNCA are associated with familial Parkinson’s disease (4, 5) .
