Dopaminergic Neuronal Loss, Reduced Neurite Complexity and Autophagic Abnormalities in Transgenic Mice Expressing G2019S Mutant LRRK2

Liliane Glauser, Darren Moore, Klodjan Stafa, Ying Liu, David Ramonet Jimenez

Mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene cause late-onset, autosomal dominant familial Parkinson's disease (PD) and also contribute to idiopathic PD. LRRK2 mutations represent the most common cause of PD with clinical and neurochemical fe ...

Alpha-Synuclein Effects at the ER-to-Golgi Level and Potential Biomarkers in Rat Models of the Early Phase of Parkinson's Disease

Philippe Guillaume Coune

While Parkinson's disease has been described nearly 200 years ago, the mechanisms leading to the degeneration of selectively vulnerable populations of neurons, such as dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, remain mostly unknown. Our poor understand ...

The anti-Parkinsonian drug selegiline delays the nucleation phase of α-synuclein aggregation leading to the formation of nontoxic species

Hilal Lashuel, Saviana Di Giovanni

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a movement disorder characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the formation of intraneuronal inclusions called Lewy bodies, which are composed mainly of α-synuclein (α-syn). Selegiline (Sel) i ...

Time-dependent alterations of peripheral immune parameters after nigrostriatal dopamine depletion in a rat model of Parkinson's disease

Raphaël Doenlen

Dysfunction of the central dopaminergic system is associated with neurodegenerative disorders and mental illnesses such as Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia. Patients suffering from these diseases were reported to exhibit altered immune functions compa ...

Response of aged parkinsonian monkeys to in vivo gene transfer of GDNF

Patrick Aebischer, Romain Zufferey

This study assessed the potential for functional and anatomical recovery of the diseased aged primate nigrostriatal system, in response to trophic factor gene transfer. Aged rhesus monkeys received a single intracarotid infusion of MPTP, followed one week ...

Chemical destruction of brain noradrenergic neurons affects splenic cytokine production

Raphaël Doenlen

The neurotransmitter noradrenaline (NA) plays a pivotal role in immune regulation. Here we used the selective neurotoxin N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-ethyl-2-bromobenzylamine (DSP-4) to investigate the impact of central NA depletion on cytokine production by spleni ...

Conditional transgenic mice expressing C-terminally truncated human alpha-synuclein (alpha Syn119) exhibit reduced striatal dopamine without loss of nigrostriatal pathway dopaminergic neurons

Darren Moore

Background: Missense mutations and multiplications of the alpha-synuclein gene cause autosomal dominant familial Parkinson's disease (PD). alpha-Synuclein protein is also a major component of Lewy bodies, the hallmark pathological inclusions of PD. Therefo ...

Impact of phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein in Parkinson's disease

Samareh Azeredo da Silveira Lajaunias

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the degeneration of dopamineric neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta projecting to the striatum, and by the deposition of cytoplasmic protein inclusions. It is further defined by the persistent presence ...

Hsp104 antagonizes alpha-synuclein aggregation and reduces dopaminergic degeneration in a rat model of Parkinson disease

Hilal Lashuel, Patrick Aebischer, Christophe Lo Bianco

Parkinson disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic neurodegeneration and intracellular inclusions of alpha-synuclein amyloid fibers, which are stable and difficult to dissolve. Whether inclusions are neuroprotective or pathological remains controversi ...

Transient striatal delivery of GDNF via encapsulated cells leads to sustained behavioral improvement in a bilateral model of Parkinson disease

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Jean-Charles Bensadoun, Christophe Lo Bianco

Numerous studies have shown the neuroprotective and regenerative benefits of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in animal models of PD. Brain delivery of GDNF can, however, be associated with limiting side-effects in both primates and PD pa ...
