abstract = {In several neurodegenerative disorders, proteins that
typically exhibit an α-helical structure misfold into an
amyloid conformation rich in β-sheet content. Through a
self-templating mechanism, these amyloids are able to induce
additional protein misfolding, facilitating their
propagation throughout the central nervous system. This
disease mechanism was originally identified for the prion
protein (PrP), which misfolds into PrPSc in a number of
disorders, including variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease
(vCJD) and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). More
recently, the prion mechanism of disease was expanded to
include other proteins that rely on this self-templating
mechanism to cause progressive degeneration, including
α-synuclein misfolding in Parkinson’s disease (PD).
Several studies now suggest that PD patients can be
subcategorized based on where in the body misfolded
α-synuclein originates, either the brain or the gut,
similar to patients developing sporadic CJD or vCJD. In this
review, we discuss the human and animal model data
indicating that α-synuclein and PrPSc misfolding originates
in the gut in body-first PD and vCJD, and summarize the data
identifying the role of the autonomic nervous system in the
gut-brain axis of both diseases.},
