Patient-derived GBA1-PARK2 double-mutant cellular models to study the effect of GBA1 as a modifier of familial Parkinson’s disease
Objective: In this study, we propose to decipher the role of GBA1 as a modifier of familial Parkinson’s disease (PD) using double-mutant patient-derived cellular models…A neuronal model of PARK20 (SYNJ1 mutation) using patient derived iPSCs
Objective: The SYNJ1 homozygous mutation (p.Arg258Gln) leads to juvenile Parkinsonism (PARK20). SYNJ1 plays an important role in synaptic vesicle cycling, and regulating autophagic flux. We…Neuroprotection of indole-derivative compound NC001-8 in Parkinson disease cell model by regulatory of NRF2 pathway
Objective: The goal of this study is to investigate the effects of indole-derivative compound NC001-8 on neuroprotection in PD disease cell model. Background: Parkinson’s disease…Modulation of microglia function in the prion-like spreading of α-synuclein in the murine brain
Objective: We aimed to analyze the influence of two microglia-related pathways on the accumulation of α-synuclein aggregates and neurodegeneration after intracerebral injection of sonicated murine…Piper longum L. alkaloids inhibit lipopolysaccharide-stimulated microglial activation and protect nigral dopaminergic neurons
Objective: The ethanol-extracted alkaloids from the dry seeds of Piper longum L. (PLL) (family Piperaceae) PLA contain numerous compounds. We evaluate the potential of PLA…Sodium butyrate attenuates rotenone-induced neurodegeneration via enhancing autophagy and preventing α-synuclein aggregation
Objective: To investigate whether sodium butyrate (NaB) could enhance autophagy and thus exert a neuroprotective effect through the modulation of α-synuclein in animal models of…Generation and characterization of midbrain organoids from iPSCs of familial Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To generate and characterize human pluripotent stem cell (iPSCs) - derived midbrain cerebral organoids of patients with Parkinson's disease. Background: Parkinson's disease is a…Neuronal nicotinamide-N-methyltransferase (NNMT) in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Understanding the role of NNMT in initiation and progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: 10-15% of all PD cases are caused by genetic factors,…Movement disorders are the common signs as the first neurological deficit in cases with spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2)
Objective: We studied neurological signs in cases with SCA2 for early diagnosis. Background: SCA2 is a classification of hereditary ataxia, however, patients with SCA2 have…Generation and characterization of iPSC-derived nigral dopaminergic and pyramidal glutamatergic neurons from patients affected by multiple system atrophy
Objective: The aim of the present study is to generate dopaminergic and pyramidal neurons from iPSCs of MSA patients in order to establish an in…
