## Abstract Lewy bodies, the pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD), consist largely of α‐synuclein, a 14.5‐kDa presynaptic neuronal protein implicated in familial PD. An increased copy number and elevated expression of wild‐type α‐synuclein (__SNCA__) has been shown to cause early‐onset

## Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder involving several neuronal systems. Impaired olfactory function may constitute one of the earliest symptoms of PD. However, it is still unclear to what degree changes of the olfactory epithelium may contribute to dysosmia and if t
## Abstract ## Background Our aim in this study was to identify prognostic factors and the optimal therapeutic management in patients with minor salivary gland carcinomas. ## Methods Overall and disease‐free survival and overall survival after recurrence in patients with adenoidcystic carcinoma
## Abstract Data on the frequency of α‐__synuclein__ mutations in Parkinson's disease (PD) are limited. Screening the entire coding region in 1,921 PD patients with denaturing high performance liquid chromatography and subsequent sequencing we only detected silent mutations (g.2654A>G, g.10151G>A,
