The presence of α-tubulin in Lewy bodies, pale bodies and Lewy neurites was highlighted by Alim et al. [33] in human brain affected by PD and other synucleinopathies, whereas a proximity of α-synuclein with axonal microtubules was observed exclusively by immunogold localization in cortical rat brain tissue [6]. The gene discussed is SNCA; the disease is Parkinson disease.
