Dopamine Transporter, PhosphoSerine129 alpha-Synuclein and alpha-Synuclein Levels in Aged LRRK2 G2019S Knock-In and Knock-Out Mice

Salvatore Novello

The G2019S mutation in leucine rich-repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is a major cause of familial Parkinson's disease. We previously reported that G2019S knock-in mice manifest dopamine transporter dysfunction and phosphoSerine129 alpha-synuclein (pSer129 alpha-syn ...

Data-Driven Modeling of Cholinergic Modulation of Neural Microcircuits: Bridging Neurons, Synapses and Network Activity

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Cristina Colangelo

Neuromodulators, such as acetylcholine (ACh), control information processing in neural microcircuits by regulating neuronal and synaptic physiology. Computational models and simulations enable predictions on the potential role of ACh in reconfiguring netwo ...

Genetic Polymorphism Associated Prefrontal Glutathione and Its Coupling With Brain Glutamate and Peripheral Redox Status in Early Psychosis

Rolf Gruetter, Lijing Xin, Benoît Schaller, Huanxiang Lu

BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress and glutathione (GSH) metabolism dysregulation has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. GAG-trinucleotide repeat (TNR) polymorphisms in the glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic gene (GCLC), the rate-limiting ...

Lactate release from astrocytes to neurons contributes to cocaine memory formation

Pierre Magistretti

The identification of neural substrates underlying the long lasting debilitating impact of drug cues is critical for developing novel therapeutic tools. Metabolic coupling has long been considered a key mechanism through which astrocytes and neurons active ...

Overexpression of parkin in the rat nigrostriatal dopamine system protects against methamphetamine neurotoxicity

Bernard Schneider

Methamphetamine (METH) is a central nervous system psychostimulant with a high potential for abuse. At high doses, METH causes a selective degeneration of dopaminergic terminals in the striatum, sparing other striatal terminals and cell bodies. We previous ...

HDAC4 Reduction: A Novel Therapeutic Strategy to Target Cytoplasmic Huntingtin and Ameliorate Neurodegeneration

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) 4 is a transcriptional repressor that contains a glutamine-rich domain. We hypothesised that it may be involved in the molecular pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD), a protein-folding neurodegenerative disorder caused by an ...

Investigation of novel calcium-related events as suspected contributors to neurodegeneration

Calcium regulates neuronal signaling and viability through a vast range of cellular and molecular mechanisms. However, many details of these mechanisms still remain to be elucidated. It is believed that calcium-related pathways may comprise promising thera ...

Neuroprotective gene therapy for Huntington's disease using a polymer encapsulated BHK cell line engineered to secrete human CNTF

Patrick Aebischer, Nicole Déglon, Laurence Winkel

Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease with devastating clinical effects on cognitive, psychological, and motor functions. These clinical symptoms primarily relate to the progressive loss of medium-spiny GABA-ergic neurons of th ...
