Ru(II)-Arene Complexes of Curcumin and Bisdesmethoxycurcumin Metabolites

Paul Joseph Dyson, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Mouna Hadiji

Curcuminoids and their complexes continue to attract attention in medicinal chemistry, but little attention has been given to their metabolic derivatives. Here, the first examples of (arene)Ru(II) complexes with curcuminoid metabolites, tetrahydrocurcumin ...

Pathological Relevance of Post-Translationally Modified Alpha-Synuclein (pSer87, pSer129, nTyr39) in Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease and Multiple System Atrophy

Hilal Lashuel, Melek Firat Altay

Aggregated alpha-synuclein (alpha-synuclein) is the main component of Lewy bodies (LBs), Lewy neurites (LNs), and glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs), which are pathological hallmarks of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA ...

Pathological substrate of memory impairment in multiple system atrophy

Hilal Lashuel, Melek Firat Altay

Aims: Synaptic dysfunction in Parkinson's disease is caused by propagation of pathogenic alpha-synuclein between neurons. Previously, in multiple system atrophy (MSA), pathologically characterised by ectopic deposition of abnormal alpha-synuclein predomina ...

Revisiting the specificity and ability of phospho-S129 antibodies to capture alpha-synuclein biochemical and pathological diversity

Hilal Lashuel, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Christian Iseli, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Jonathan Jean-Pierre Ricci, Yllza Jasiqi, Anass Chiki, Sean Michael Deguire, Ritwik Burai, Melek Firat Altay, Salvatore Novello, Sonia Donzelli, Ramanath Narayana Hegde, Pedro José Santana Ribeiro Magalhães

Antibodies against phosphorylated alpha-synuclein (aSyn) at 5129 have emerged as the primary tools to investigate, monitor, and quantify aSyn pathology in the brain and peripheral tissues of patients with Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative dis ...

Enhancing mitochondrial quality control to fight neuromuscular degeneration in aging and disease

Mario Romani

Loss of mitochondrial function and proteostasis typify aging and age-associated degenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and muscle aging. To date, no cure or preventive measure is available to manage these conditions. Alterations of cellular pro ...

Parkin mediates the ubiquitination of VPS35 and modulates retromer-dependent endosomal sorting

Liliane Glauser, Elpida Tsika, Darren Moore

Mutations in a number of genes cause familial forms of Parkinson's disease (PD), including mutations in the vacuolar protein sorting 35 ortholog (VPS35) and parkin genes. In this study, we identify a novel functional interaction between parkin and VPS35. W ...

Parkin functionally interacts with PGC-1 proportional to to preserve mitochondria and protect dopaminergic neurons

Johan Auwerx, Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Graham Knott, Davide D'Amico, Darren Moore, Norman Lionel Moullan, Nathalie Marie Géraldine Bernard, Lu Zheng

To understand the cause of Parkinson's disease (PD), it is important to determine the functional interactions between factors linked to the disease. Parkin is associated with autosomal recessive early-onset PD, and controls the transcription of PGC-1a, a m ...

The effect of the functional interaction between PGC-1α and Parkin on mitochondrial quality control in Parkinson's disease

Lu Zheng

Although several genetic factors have been directly associated to Parkinsonâs disease (PD), no single pathway has emerged to explain the etiology of this neurodegenerative disease. To further understand the cause of Parkinsonâs disease (PD), it is ther ...

alpha-Synuclein-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration in a rat model of Parkinson's disease occurs independent of ATP13A2 (PARK9)

Bernard Schneider, Liliane Glauser, Elpida Tsika, Darren Moore, Alessandra Musso, Guillaume Daniel, Aris Nikolaos Fiser

Mutations in the ATP13A2 (PARK9) gene cause early-onset, autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease (PD) and Kufor-Rakeb syndrome. ATP13A2 mRNA is spliced into three distinct isoforms encoding a P5-type ATPase involved in regulating heavy metal transport acro ...

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response in mammalian physiology

Johan Auwerx, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis, Virginija Jovaisaite

Mitochondria, the main site of cellular energy harvesting, are derived from proteobacteria that evolved within our cells in endosymbiosis. Mitochondria retained vestiges of their proteobacterial genome, the circular mitochondrial DNA, which encodes 13 subu ...
