Immunoproteasome subunits as emerging contributors to neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To gain comprehensive contribution of immunoproteasome in central nervous system of Parkinson's Disease Background: Recent investigations have elucidated that, in addition to the classical…Transcriptome analysis of proteasome and inflammation in the substantia nigra of Parkinson’s disease patients: the GEO database.
Objective: In this study, we analyzed transcriptome data regarding protein degradation pathways and inflammation sourced from GEO database. Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second…Relationship between tumor and very slow Parkinson`s disease progression
Objective: We evaluate the Parkinson`s disease patients with very slow progression. One of their clinical features are the medical history of tumor. Background: Some cancer…Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 1 (UCHL1) -mediated ubiquitination attributed to localization of Mortalin to mitochondria
Objective: The pathogenic mechanism of UCHL1 in PD remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of UCHL1 in the pathogenesis of…A pilot study of plasma ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) as a potential blood-based biomarker in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine plasma levels of UCH-L1 in patients with PD, and to investigate the association with both genetic (leucine-rich repeat kinase 2, LRRK2 and…Mitochondrial Hsp90 inhibitor G-TTP triggers PINK1/parkin-dependent mitochondrial quality control
Objective: To characterize the response of cells treated with Gamitrinib-triphenylphosphonium (G-TTP) a mitochondrial targeted inhibitor of the chaperone Hsp90. Background: Upon dissipation of the mitochondrial…The role and underlying mechanisms of BAG3 in regulating autophagy in PC12 cells
Objective: To detect the role of Bcl-2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) in regulating autophagy in PC12 cells and explore the underlying mechanisms of it. Background: Increasing…Loss of FBXO7 (PARK15) leads to disturbances in proteasomal function and models parkinsonism-like and pyramidal symptoms in mice
Objective: To model Parkinsonian-pyramidal syndrome (PARK15) in mice and investigate the impact of loss of F-box only protein 7 (FBXO7) in neurons on proteasomal activity.…Three cases of neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID)
Objective: Here, we present three NIID cases. One of them, autopsy was performed. Background: Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID)(OMIM 603472) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized…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…
