Cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous drivers of dopamine neuron vulnerability in Parkinson’s disease
This review examines evidence for cell-autonomous mechanisms and non-cell-autonomous processes arising from glial and peripheral immune cells and how these pathways can converge to create chronic cellular stress and trigger cell death mechanisms.
Scientific Perspectives: Structural Biology of LRRK2 and its Interaction with Microtubules
Mutations in LRRK2 are linked to Parkinson's disease. LRRK2 regulates membrane trafficking and interacts with microtubules. Recent studies have revealed its cytosolic and microtubule-bound forms using cryo-EM and cryo-ET techniques.
Role of autophagy pathway in Parkinson’s disease and related Genetic Neurological disorders
The authors provide a comprehensive overview of the general importance of autophagy in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and related disorders of the central nervous system (CNS).
