A single <i>Citrobacter rodentium</i> infection in Pink1 knockout and wildtype mice leads to regional blood-brain-barrier perturbation and limited microglial activation without dopamine neuron axon terminal loss
2024-12-24
Abstract excerpt
A growing body of research suggests a link between immune system activation and the development of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Previous work showed that repeated gastrointestinal infection with Citrobacter rodentium can induce PD-like motor dysfunction in Pink1 knockout (KO) mice, along with immune cell infiltration into the brain. To better understand mechanisms underlying immune-mediated brain attack in this mod...
