  1. For each mouse line, qualitative neuropathological grading of pathological inclusion burden and immunological response induced by each inoculum was graded on the following scale: (+/−) rare, (+) mild, (++) moderate, and (+++) severe. This grading for M83+/− injected with MSA lysates only include the mice that developed αS inclusion pathology
