Abstract
⺠Mammalian Atg8 homologues containing LC3 and GABARAPs are involved in autophagosomal formation. ⺠We examined whether Atg8 homologues were altered in Lewy body disease. ⺠All Atg8 homologues were localized in Lewy bodies. ⺠LC3 was the most vulnerable protein among them. ⺠Autophagic function can be impaired through alteration of Atg8 homologues in Lewy body disease.
