Parkinson's disease comprises multiple biological subtypes and a heterogeneous clinical course. A recent study by Liao et al. identifies CHCHD2 mutations as a mitochondrial entry point that links metabolic dysfunction to α-synuclein pathology. These findings highlight how rare sporadiclike monogenic forms of Parkinson's disease may inform mechanistic and therapeutic stratification.
