Abstract excerpt
Dopaminergic neurodegeneration during Parkinson disease (PD) involves several pathways including proteasome inhibition, alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) aggregation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and glutathione (GSH) depletion. We have utilized a systems biology approach and built a dynamic model to understand and link the various events related to PD pathophysiology. We have corroborated the modeling data by examining...
