Mitochondrial phenotype related to the A30P alpha-synuclein mutation as a patient-derived cellular model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Our study aims to perform detailed phenotyping of the A30P alpha-synuclein familial case of PD, allowing to identify underlying mechanisms of the disease that…The Association between Infections and Parkinson Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Objective: Our study aimed to recapitulate and summarize the findings from the literature to provide an overview on the correlation between infection and PD. Background:…Cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers in Huntington’s disease – a longitudinal study
Objective: To validate the role of NFL as a marker of disease progression and to discover new biomarkers in HD. Background: Neurofilament light chain (NFL)…Mutant DNAJC13 modulates accumulation and toxicity of alpha-synuclein through altered endosomal trafficking in cell and fly models of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of DNAJC13 mutation on the vesicle transport, α-synuclein (αSYN) distribution/catabolism, and neurodegeneration using a…Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor alleviated 6-OHDA-induced cell damage via ROS-AMPK/mTOR mediated autophagic inhibition
Objective: In this study, we investigated the role of autophagy system in MANF-mediated neuroprotection against 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced neurotoxicity. Background: Autophagy and apoptosis are commonly involved…Assessment of neurodegeneration and spreading of α-synuclein pathology induced by structurally defined α-synuclein assemblies in wild-type mice
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate, in wild-type mice, the spreading and neurodegeneration induced by intracerebral injection of structurally well-defined α-synuclein assemblies…Expression of late cell cycle markers in Parkinson Disease and Lewy Body Dementia
Objective: The objective of this study is to determine the expression of late cell cycle markers in Parkinson Disease (PD) and Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) Background:…ESCRT-0 dysfunction compromises autophagic degradation of protein aggregates and facilitates ER stress-mediated neurodegeneration via apoptotic and necroptotic pathways
Objective: Endosomal sorting required for transport (ESCRT) orchestrates endo-lysosomal soring of ubiquitinated proteins, multivesicular body formation. The aim of this study is to elucidate the…CSF inflammatory and cell death biomarkers in Huntington’s disease – An exploratory cross-sectional study
Objective: This exploratory work intended to study general inflammatory cytokines, microglial activation markers, and neuronal cell death markers in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of HD…Diverse effects of alpha-synuclein fibrils on various neuron cell lines, using different buffers
Objective: To investigate the neurotoxic properties of alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) aggregation in different buffers including PBS, SBF and Tris on altered cell lines, SHSY5Y, SK-N-MC and…
