A Glance at Biogenesis and Functionality of MicroRNAs and Their Role in the Neuropathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNA transcripts. Mammalian miRNA coding sequences are located in introns and exons of genes encoding various proteins. As the central nervous system is the largest source of miRNA transcripts in living organisms, miRNA molecules are an integral part of the regulation of epigenetic activity in physiological and ...

Long-term Levodopa Treatment Accelerates the Circadian Rhythm Dysfunction in a 6-hydroxydopamine Rat Model of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with long-term levodopa (L-DOPA) treatment are suffering from severe circadian dysfunction. However, it is hard to distinguish that the circadian disturbance in patients is due to the disease progression ...

Mitochondrial Dynamics and Mitophagy in the 6‐Hydroxydopamine Preclinical Model of Parkinson′s Disease

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
We discuss the participation of mitochondrial dynamics and autophagy in the 6‐hydroxidopamine‐induced Parkinson’s disease model. The regulation of dynamic mitochondrial processes such as fusion, fission, and mitophagy has been shown to be an important mechanism controlling cellular fate.

The Evolution of Technology‐Driven In Vitro Models for Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 16, April 24, 2024.
Despite significant research efforts, the knowledge about neurodegenerative disorder pathological processes and the development of efficacious drugs are still limited due to the inability to access and reproduce the intricated microenvironment of the nervous system.

Suppressing RNA silencing with small molecules and the viral suppressor of RNA silencing protein p19

open access: yes, 2015
RNA silencing is a gene regulatory and host defense mechanism whereby small RNA molecules are engaged by Argonaute (AGO) proteins, which facilitate gene knockdown of complementary mRNA targets.

Effect of potassium channel blocker 4-aminopyridine pretreatment on the 6-OHDA-induced Parkinson's disease in rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Qazvin University of Medical Sciences, 2015
Background: Nuclease and caspase enzymes activities which promote death signals and lead to apoptosis are dependent to potassium ions. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) potassium channel blocker on ...

Axonal transport of manganese and its relevance to selective neurotoxicity in the rat basal ganglia

open access: yes, 1994
The present study provides evidence for anterograde axonal transport of managanese (Mn) in the basal ganglia. Microinjections of 54Mn into rat substantia nigra or stratum revealed region-specific accumulation and retention of the isotope in globus ...

Morphine, capsaicin and K+ release purines from capsaicin-sensitive primary afferent nerve terminals in the spinal cord

open access: yes, 1989
In the present study the neuronal source of adenosine released by K+, morphine and norepinephrine (NE) from the spinal cord was investigated. Intrathecal pretreatment with 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine and 6-hydroxydopamine reduced spinal 5-hydroxytryptamine ...
