Single cell eQTL mapping reveals convergent glial–neuronal risk architecture in Parkinson’s disease
Population-scale, disease-context aware meta single-nucleus eQTLs mapping (N = 1,197) in nine cell types from cortex and substantia nigra identifies 125 risk genes and cell types for PD GWAS signals.

CREsted: modeling genomic and synthetic cell-type-specific enhancers across tissues and species
CREsted, a sequence-based deep learning model, analyzes genomic regulatory code, decodes enhancer grammar, and designs synthetic enhancers. It preprocesses single-cell data, models chromatin accessibility, and compares cell states across tissues.

FushikiA_etal_2024: PD Model Mice Study – v1.0 Code
Repository offers tools for processing, analyzing, and visualizing data related to PD and dopaminergic neurons.
A druggable ATP13A3–antizyme switch controls adaptive polyamine uptake in cancer
Cellular polyamine depletion for cancer treatment is hindered by compensatory uptake. ATP13A3, not ATP13A2, is the key polyamine importer affected by DFMO. Antizyme inhibits uptake by ATP13A3, suggesting a targetable strategy for cancer therapy.
A single Citrobacter rodentium infection in Pink1 knockout and wild type mice leads to regional blood-brain-barrier perturbation and limited microglial activation without dopamine neuron axon terminal loss
Research suggests immune system activation may contribute to Parkinson’s disease development. Mild infections can increase BBB permeability, triggering brain inflammation in genetically susceptible individuals, potentially leading to PD pathology.
Dataset for “A single Citrobacter rodentium infection in Pink1 knockout and wild-type mice leads to regional blood-brain-barrier perturbation and limited microglial activation without dopamine neuron axon terminal loss”
Immune system activation may contribute to PD development. Infection increases BBB permeability in mice, leading to brain inflammation. This suggests infections could trigger PD in genetically susceptible individuals.
Generation of DATcrePink1 Knockout Mice Expressing tdTomato in Dopaminergic Neurons
Protocol details generation of DATcrePink1 mice expressing tdTomato in dopaminergic neurons. Covers Pink1 KO, HET, WT variants, animal housing, breeding, and genotyping procedures.
Semi-automated quantification of microglial CD68 and Iba1 immunohistochemistry signal in mouse brain slices
A standardized method for semi-automated detection and quantification of CD68 and Iba1 in brain sections using image acquisition, AI segmentation, and data analysis.
Automated Quantification of Dopaminergic Neurons in Floating Sections V.1
Automated method for detecting and measuring dopaminergic neurons in brain sections using image capture, AI segmentation, and data analysis in SNc and VTA regions.
STING dampens the unfolded protein response to enable the presentation of self antigens on MHC-I during inflammation
STING pathway regulates antigen presentation through the UPR, impacting immune response in PD and autoimmune diseases. Targeting STING and UPR could be therapeutic.
Dataset for “STING dampens the unfolded protein response to enable the presentation of self-antigens on MHC-I during inflammation”
STING pathway activation impacts antigen presentation through the UPR and may be a target for therapeutic intervention in PD and autoimmune diseases.
