The overall goal of this procedure is to monitor prion-like spreading of protein aggregates in vivo. Using transgenic flies that express an aggregation prone protein in a soluble version of the same protein in isolated cell populations. This metho

Ackumulerande bevis stöder tanken att patogena protein aggregat i samband med neurodegenerativa sjukdomar sprids mellan celler med prion-liknande egenskaper. Här beskriver vi en metod som möjliggör visualisering av cell-till-cell spridning av prion-liknande aggregat i modell organismen, Drosophila melanogaster.
