Conjugal Parkinson´s disease – Real or chance?
Objective: To describe the occurrence of three cases of conjugal Parkinson´s disease (PD) in a data set of 160 PD patients with a follow up…Polyethylenimine (PEI) nanoparticle-mediated delivery of siRNA to silence neuronal gene expression of alpha-synuclein in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To develop novel therapeutic strategies for movement disorders by interfering with neuronal gene expression, PEI nanoparticle-mediated delivery of RNA was investigated in vivo. Background:…α-synuclein in peripheral organs decreases in Lewy body disease complicated by Alzheimer’s disease
Objective: To examine whether the degree of α-synuclein (α-Syn) in the peripheral organs of patients with Lewy body disease (LBD: Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy…Increased cellular co-localization of tau fragment 1-368 and alpha-synuclein in two mouse model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To examine the distribution of a novel tau pathology and its interaction with alpha-synuclein in two mouse model of Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Cleavage…Characterisation of the A30P mutation in alpha-synuclein gene in patient-derived cellular model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: In this study, we aim to generate and characterise patient-derived midbrain dopaminergic neurons (mDANs) of the A30P Parkinson's disease (PD) familial case. Our goal…Impaired hippocampal neurogenesis associates with serotonergic axonal degeneration in transgenic rat and mouse models of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the impact of α-synuclein accumulation on the hippocampal serotonergic system and hippocampal plasticity in two different α-synuclein expressing rodent models. Background: Parkinson's…Exosomes-injection to reproduce a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease: A preliminary report
Objective: To explore the pathogenicity of exosomes derived from Parkinson's disease (PD) patients' serum and healthy control's serum in vivo and verify the prion-like propagation…Functional characterisation and the selective vulnerability of SNCA (A30P) patient-derived midbrain dopaminergic neurons to ER stress
Objective: To functional characterise and phenotype the genetic Parkinson's disease (PD) patient with an A30P point mutation in SNCA using midbrain dopaminergic neurons (mDANs) vs…Reducing C-terminal truncation mitigates synucleinopathy and neurodegeneration in a transgenic model of multiple system atrophy
Objective: To assess the therapeutic efficacy of the caspase-1 inhibitor prodrug VX-765 on alpha-synuclein (α-syn) pathology and neuroprotection in a transgenic mouse model of multiple…A novel single molecule imaging approach to detect individual protein oligomers in CSF from patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD)
Objective: (1) To develop an ultra-sensitive method to visualize single amyloid oligomers and (2) to compare the oligomer load in CSF from patients with PD…
