Photobiomodulation Suppresses Alpha-Synuclein-Induced Toxicity in an AAV-Based Rat Genetic Model of Parkinson's Disease

Hubert van den Bergh, Hilal Lashuel, Georges Wagnières, Abid Oueslati, Blaise Lovisa, John Perrin

Converging lines of evidence indicate that near-infrared light treatment, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), may exert beneficial effects and protect against cellular toxicity and degeneration in several animal models of human pathologies, including n ...

The H50Q Mutation Enhances alpha-Synuclein Aggregation, Secretion, and Toxicity

Giovanni Dietler, Hilal Lashuel, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Abid Oueslati, Martial Mbefo Kamdem, Ossama Mohamed Salah El-Dien El-Sayed Ibrahim Khalaf, Filip Vercruysse

Over the last two decades, the identification of missense mutations in the alpha-synuclein (alpha-Syn) gene SNCA in families with inherited Parkinson disease (PD) has reinforced the central role of alpha-Syn in PD pathogenesis. Recently, a new missense mut ...

Phosphorylation at S87 is enhanced in synucleinopathies, inhibits alpha-synuclein oligomerization, and influences synuclein-membrane interactions

Hilal Lashuel, Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Adrian Schmid, Diego Chiappe, Abid Oueslati, Marc Moniatte, Magdalena Zweckstetter

Increasing evidence suggests that phosphorylation may play an important role in the oligomerization, fibrillogenesis, Lewy body (LB) formation, and neurotoxicity of alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) in Parkinson disease. Herein we demonstrate that alpha-syn is p ...

Phosphorylation of synucleins by members of the Polo-like kinase family

Hilal Lashuel, Harald Hirling, Abid Oueslati, Martial Mbefo Kamdem, Magdalena Zweckstetter

Phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) at Ser-129 is a hallmark of Parkinson disease and related synucleinopathies. However, the identity of the natural kinases and phosphatases responsible for regulating alpha-syn phosphorylation remain unknown. H ...

Role of post-translational modifications in modulating the structure, function and toxicity of alpha-synuclein: implications for Parkinson's disease pathogenesis and therapies

Hilal Lashuel, Abid Oueslati

A better understanding of the molecular and cellular determinants that influence the pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD) is essential for developing effective diagnostic, preventative and therapeutic strategies to treat this devastating disease. A number ...
