MIRO1 mutation leads to metabolic maladaptation resulting in Parkinson’s disease-associated dopaminergic neuron loss [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Systems Biology and Applications
MIRO1 is a mitochondrial outer membrane protein important for mitochondrial distribution, dynamics and bioenergetics. Over the last decade, evidence has pointed to a link between MIRO1 and Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathogenesis.

LncRNA-T199678 Mitigates α-Synuclein-Induced Dopaminergic Neuron Injury via miR-101-3p

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2020
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by dopaminergic neuron death and the abnormal accumulation and aggregation of α-synuclein (α-Syn) in the substantia nigra (SN). Although the abnormal accumulation

Neurogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells to neuron-like cells in dopaminergic and motor neuronal inductive media

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2014
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have been proposed as a promising source of stem cells in nerve regeneration due to their close embryonic origin and ease of harvest.

The Parkinson’s disease-associated LRRK2-G2019S variant restricts serine metabolism, leading to microglial inflammation and dopaminergic neuron degeneration [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation
A growing body of evidence implicates inflammation as a key hallmark in the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s disease (PD), with microglia playing a central role in mediating neuroinflammatory signaling in the brain.

Sustained chemogenetic activation of locus coeruleus norepinephrine neurons promotes dopaminergic neuron survival in synucleinopathy

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Dopaminergic neuron degeneration in the midbrain plays a pivotal role in motor symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease. However, non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and post-mortem histopathology confirm dysfunction in other brain areas ...

Identification of signaling pathways modifying human dopaminergic neuron development using a pluripotent stem cell-based high-throughput screening automated system: purinergic pathways as a proof-of-principle

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Alteration in the development, maturation, and projection of dopaminergic neurons has been proposed to be associated with several neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Alpha-synuclein disrupted dopamine homeostasis leads to dopaminergic neuron degeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Disruption of dopamine homeostasis may lead to dopaminergic neuron degeneration, a proposed explanation for the specific vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease. While expression of human alpha-synuclein in C.

Opposing effects of β-2 and β-1 adrenergic receptor signaling on neuroinflammation and dopaminergic neuron survival in α-synuclein-mediated neurotoxicity

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2023
Background Noradrenergic neurons in the locus coeruleus (LC) are the primary source of norepinephrine (NE) in the brain and degeneration of these neurons is reported in the early stages of Parkinson’s disease (PD), even prior to dopaminergic neuron ...
