Endogenous LRRK2 and PINK1 function in a convergent neuroprotective ciliogenesis pathway in the brain
By Emma Sherrell onPreprint: Mutations in LRRK2 and PINK1 are associated with familial Parkinson's disease (PD). The present study indicates that LRRK2 activation or loss of PINK1 function along parallel pathways impairs ciliogenesis, suggesting a convergent mechanism toward PD.
Protocol for performing PINK1 siRNA knockdown in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs)
By Emma Sherrell onThis protocol details the siRNA knockdown in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) for PINK1, but applicable for any other target.
RNA extraction and PCR protocol

Molecular and spatial transcriptomic classification of midbrain dopamine neurons and their alterations in a LRRK2G2019S model of Parkinson’s disease
By Emma Sherrell onPreprint: The authors developed an optimized pipeline for single-nuclear RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) and generated a high-resolution hierarchically organized map revealing 20 molecularly distinct DA neuron subtypes. The data revealed heterogeneity even within neuroanatomical sub-structures. Finally, in a preclinical LRRK2G2019S knock-in mouse model of PD, subtype organization and proportions are preserved.

Adult-onset deletion of ATP13A2 in mice induces progressive nigrostriatal pathway dopaminergic degeneration and lysosomal abnormalities
By Emma Sherrell onPublication: The study demonstrates that the adult-onset homozygous deletion of ATP13A2 in the nigrostriatal pathway produces robust and progressive dopaminergic neurodegeneration that serves as a useful in vivo model of ATP13A2-related neurodegenerative diseases.
