Early deficits in an in vitro striatal microcircuit model carrying the Parkinson’s GBA-N370S mutation

The results highlight the unique utility of modeling striatal neurons in a modular and highly physiological circuit, which is essential to reveal mechanistic insights of the loss of electrical functional integrity in the striata of GBA1 PD patients.

Postsynaptic adaptations in direct pathway muscarinic M4-receptor signaling follow the temporal and regional pattern of dopaminergic degeneration

Imbalances in dorsal striatum output in Parkinson's disease are driven by dopamine loss and disrupted acetylcholine signaling. These changes occur in response to dopamine loss, affecting M4 receptors in striatal neurons, crucial for PD progression.
