It is important to note that while mutations in the nonglycosylated 14 kDa form of alphaSYN have been linked to the pathogenesis of PD (see below), to date, they have not been linked with Parkin-associated AR-JP. PubMed:14556719
Early studies demonstrated that overexpression of a specific human HSP70 (HSPA1L) in a Drosophila disease model suppressed neurodegeneration associated with expression of polyQ-containing forms of both ataxin 3 or androgen receptor, and α -synuclein (Warrick et al., 1999; Chan et al., 2000, 2002; Auluck et al., 2002). PubMed:27491084
Cuervo et al. have revealed a distinct interaction of wild-type and mutant α-synuclein proteins with CMA [64] PubMed:29758300
That neurodegenerative disease-causing proteins are frequently degraded by autophagy was demonstrated by a series of in vitro studies which showed that pharmacological induction or inhibition of macroautophagy alters the rate of turnover of a number of disease-related proteins including polyglutamine-expanded proteins, polyalanine-expanded proteins, as well as wild type and mutant forms of α-synuclein [25,26] PubMed:18930136
Mutations in α-synuclein that are causative of familial Parkinson’s disease are poorly transferred to the lysosomal lumen and accumulate on the lysosomal surface, resulting in blockade of receptor-mediated translocation. PubMed:18930136
In addition, the occurrence of alpha synuclein gene (SNCA) polymorphisms is associated with human METH psychosis [166]. PubMed:30061532

Overexpression of wild-type, but in particular mutant alphaSYN in many cell types but not in all, induces apoptosis or sensitizes the cells to toxic agents, including proteasome inhibitors (see, for example, Lee et al.,2001a). PubMed:14556719
Third, α-synuclein mutations, triplications or excesses amplify the ALN burden, interfere with auto phagosome formation and irreversibly disrupt the lysosomal mem- brane 1,3,44,56 . PubMed:30116051
