Collection of protocols of Team Deleidi used in the publication: ""LRRK2 kinase activity regulates GCase level and enzymatic activity differently depending on cell type in Parkinson’s disease""
Available ASAP-related hPSC collection from Team Studer
Collection of human pluripotent stem cell lines consisting of isogenic GBA, LRRK2, SNCA series, KI-reporter lines for TOMM20, b-actin, LAMB1, LAMP1, a-synuclein overexpression lines, and other hPSC resources.
Evaluating the performance of polygenic risk profiling across diverse ancestry populations in Parkinson’s disease
Objective This study aims to address disparities in risk prediction by evaluating the performance of polygenic risk score (PRS) models using the 90 risk variants across 78 independent loci previously linked to Parkinson’s disease (PD) risk across…
Collection of protocols for paper: “Glucocerebrosidase, a Parkinson´s disease-associated protein, is imported into mitochondria and regulates complex I assembly and function”
This is a collection of protocols used in a recent preprint by the Deleidi Lab, Team Schapira. You can access pre-print at https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-1521848/v1
Multi-ancestry genome-wide meta-analysis in Parkinson’s disease
Although over 90 independent risk variants have been identified for Parkinson’s disease using genome-wide association studies, all studies have been performed in just one population at the time. Here we performed the first large-scale…
Human Postmortem-Derived Brain Sequencing Collection (Harmonized Collection)
The Human Postmortem-derived Brain Sequencing Collection is a harmonized repository comprised of sequencing data contributed by ASAP CRN teams.
Adaptor protein-3 produces synaptic vesicles that release phasic dopamine
The burst firing of midbrain dopamine neurons releases a phasic dopamine signal that mediates reinforcement learning. At many synapses, however, high firing rates deplete synaptic vesicles (SVs), resulting in synaptic depression that limits release.…
The role of α-synuclein in exocytosis
Review focuses on α-synuclein's role in exocytosis, a key process in Parkinson's disease. Despite unclear pathogenesis, evidence points to αsyn's involvement in regulating cellular processes.
Data for Jain et al Adaptor Protein-3 Produces Synaptic Vesicles that Release Phasic Dopamine
Primary data for Jain et al "Adaptor protein-3 produces synaptic vesicles that release phasic dopamine" (Proc Natl Acad Sci. 2023; 120(42):e2309843120. doi: 10.1073/pnas.2309843120)
Mouse Behavior – Open Field and T-Maze
This protocol describes two behavioral tasks for mice. The first is the Open Field Test, which is used to asses motor behavior, and the second is the T-Maze, which is used to assess spatial learning.
Live Imaging of Primary Mouse Neuron Cultures
This protocol describes live imaging of primary neuron cultures. Included are methods for preparing hippocampal or dopamine neuronal cultures from neonatal mouse brain tissue. The imaging described involves labeling of dopamine neurons with a…
Immunostaining Mouse Brain Tissue or Neuronal Cultures
This protocol describes immunohistochemical and immunoctyochemical methods to analyze protein expression in mouse brain. In the protocol, we describe the fixation of tissue or cultured neurons, the immunostaining procedure, and collecting images for…
Mouse Brain Tissue Collection and Analysis
This protocol describes the dissection and collection of coronal sections of the striatum and midbrain from a mouse brain. The tissue can be used in a number of applications and here we describe two: the measurement catecholamine levels using…
Scripts for snRNAseq data analysis
Scripts for analyzing single nuclei sequencing data from healthy and Parkinson's Disease brains include creating a reference database with transposable element annotations and a file for Cell Ranger to produce snRNA count matrices.
Mouse α-synuclein fibrils are structurally and functionally distinct from human fibrils associated with Lewy body diseases
Mouse α-synuclein fibrils have been studied to understand Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy. They differ from human fibrils in structure and behavior, impacting research on related diseases and potential treatments.
