Synucleinopathies are a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the abnormal accumulation of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) protein within neurons, glial cells, and extracellular spaces[@spillantini1997]. This class of diseases includes Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB
