Neuronal DJ-1 regulates microglia activation via ADAM10-mediated CX3CL1 secretion
Objective: DJ-1, also known as Parkinson's disease protein 7 (PARK7), is a multifunctional protein that is important in regulating oxidative stress and neuroprotection. Background: The…Microglial Activation and Phenotype in Air Pollution Neurotoxicity: Implications for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To evaluate the impact of air pollution on microglial activation and phenotype and determine whether these changes persist following air quality improvement. Background: Epidemiological…Patient-specific Vascularized Midbrain Assembloids with Microglia show Altered Neuroinflammatory Phenotypes in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: This study aims to develop patient-specific vascularized midbrain assembloids incorporating microglia to better model the neuroinflammatory environment of Parkinson’s disease (PD). By integrating vascular…Comparison of Microglial PET Imaging in Parkinson’s Disease, RBD, and Controls with a CSF1R and TSPO Ligand.
Objective: To compare regional binding patterns of microglial PET radioligands: [11C]DPA-713, a TSPO ligand, and [11C]CPPC1, a CSF1R ligand in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD).…The role of LRRK2 in regulating microglial activity in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the effects of pathogenic LRRK2 mutations on lysosomal function and phagocytic activity of microglia. Background: The LRRK2 G2019S mutation is one of…Exploring the Therapeutic Potential of Microglial Modulation in Parkinson’s Disease: A Study on Structural Synaptic Plasticity
Objective: We aim to explore the role of glial cells in Parkinson's disease and assess whether modulating microgliafunction could offer therapeutic benefits. Specifically, we investigate…Age-associated Changes in Microglial Morphology and its Role in Deciphering Susceptibility to Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To delineate the age-associated changes in microglial morphotypes in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) of C57BL/6J and CD-1 mice and alterations in response…LRRK2 G2019S as a trigger of inflammatory signaling in patient-derived microglia
Objective: This study explores the inflammatory processes in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2)- microglia carrying the G2019S mutation and determines their contribution to Parkinson’s disease…Preliminary evidence for evolution of myoinositol and N-acteylaspartate as biomarkers of disease severity in early-stage multiple system atrophy
Objective: To quantify the longitudinal evolution of metabolic indicators of gliosis and neuronal integrity in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) over one year. Background:…Honey prevented MPTP-induced oxidative stress, neuroinflammation and gliosis in adult male Swiss mice.
Objective: To investigate the neuroprotective role of honey against oxidative stress and neuroinflammation induced by MPTP in adult male Swiss mice. Background: Oxidative stress and…
