Abstract excerpt
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex, progressive neurodegenerative disorder driven by multiple pathogenetic factors, including oxidative stress, mitochondria dysfunction, neuroinflammation and ion imbalance. Recent evidence highlights the significant role of potassium channels in the pathophysiology of PD. We recently identified a PD-linked genetic mutation in the KCNJ15 gene (KCNJ15p.R28C), encoding the...
