Comparative study of cerebrospinal fluid α‐synuclein seeding aggregation assays for diagnosis of Parkinson's disease

These α-synuclein seeding aggregation assays are reliable and reproducible for PD diagnosis. Assay parameters did not correlate with clinical parameters, including disease severity or duration. This assay is highly accurate for PD diagnosis and may impact clinical practice and clinical trials. © 2019 The Authors.
