2025-04-25
Abstract excerpt
Oxidative stress has been implicated in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Genes involved in PD, such as PRKN, PINK1 and PARK7 , contribute to oxidative stress in dopaminergic neurons. The X-linked G6PD gene encodes glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, an important regulator of oxidative stress. Recent studies suggested that alpha-synuclein aggregates may impair G6PD activity and contribute to dopaminergic neuron loss, and t...
