Aim: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder related with several genetic and epigenetic factors. In the context of epigenetic factors, histone acetylation is one of the most associated mechanisms with Parkinson's disease progression. This study investigates the effects of the increased histone acetylation on antigen presentation in microglial cells which were induced by preformed fibrils of alpha-synuclein (pFF alpha-synuclein).
