RNA Seq dataset for: α-Synuclein pathology disrupts mitochondrial function in dopaminergic and cholinergic neurons at-risk in Parkinson’s disease
Actively transcribed messenger ribonucleic acids (mRNAs) were harvested from SNc dopaminergic neurons in aSYN monomer or PFF-injected mice 12 weeks post injection and then subjected to RNASeq analysis.
Elevated brain α-synuclein, phosphorylated-tau, and oxidative stress in mice that survived influenza A pneumonitis
Influenza virus infection does not alter acute lung infection course in mice with Lrrk2 mutations. Surviving mice showed elevated neurodegeneration markers post-infection, suggesting a link between influenza and neurodegenerative diseases in humans.
