Para-subthalamic nucleus adjoins subthalamic nucleus and medial forebrain bundle, major DBS-targets in Parkinsons disease, OCD, and depression
By onThe para-STN is a poorly-defined region near critical DBS targets for PD. Here, we construct anatomical maps of para-STN and STN in multiple species using novel molecular markers in conjunction with FISH and light-sheet microscopy.
Scientists to Study Link Between Pesticides and Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s News Today reports that the ASAP has awarded a $9 million grant to scientists from Cedars-Sinai, to investigate how exposure to specific pesticides and air pollutants interacts with genetic vulnerabilities to trigger the development of the disease.
Structural remodeling of the mitochondrial protein biogenesis machinery under proteostatic stress
By onCryo-ET showed protein aggregates, altered cristae, and reduced ribosome complexes in stressed mitochondria. Mitochondrial Hsp60 undergoes conformational changes to aid in protein folding, shedding light on mitochondrial proteostasis mechanisms.
Excitatory synaptic structural abnormalities produced by templated aggregation of α-syn in the basolateral amygdala
By onPD and DLB involve α-syn inclusions in the amygdala affecting cognition and emotions. Cortico-amygdala synapses with α-syn aggregates show increased volume of synapses, potentially contributing to behavioral impairments.
Philanthropy Funnels $261 Million into Parkinson’s Research
Alzforum dives into the global scale of a $261 million investment by ASAP in partnership with The Michael J. Fox Foundation, which expands the Collaborative Research Network (CRN), to transform Parkinson's research by generating standardized tools and investigating the root causes of the disease.
Single cell eQTL mapping reveals convergent glial–neuronal risk architecture in Parkinson’s disease
By onPopulation-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.
