Abstract
A method for discriminating between Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy, the method comprising the steps of: (1) preparing a solution containing α-synuclein monomers having a tendency to produce rod-like aggregates and/or a solution containing α-synuclein monomers having a tendency to produce twisted aggregates; (2) adding a biological sample from a subject to the solution(s) containing the α-synuclein monomers prepared in step (1); (3) allowing the α-synuclein monomers to aggregate in the solution(s) obtained in step (2); and (4) detecting α-synuclein aggregates formed in step (3).
