Pharmacological PINK1 activation ameliorates Pathology in Parkinson’s Disease models
2023-02-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> PINK1 loss-of-function mutations and exposure to mitochondrial toxins are causative for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Parkinsonism, respectively. We demonstrate that pathological α-synuclein deposition, the hallmark pathology of idiopathic PD, induces mitochondrial dysfunction and impairs mitophagy, driving accumulation of the PINK1 substrate pS65-Ubiquitin (pUb) in primary neurons and in vivo. We...
