Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disorder. The
pathologic hallmark is the accumulation of aggregated alpha-synuclein in oligodendrocytes
forming glial cytoplasmic inclusions. Some symptomatic treatments are available while
disease-modification remains an unmet treatment need. Post-mortem findings suggest
insulin resistance, i.e. reduced insulin signaling, in the brains of MSA patients. The
aim of this study is to complete the target validation of insulin resistance for future
treatment trials.
