A conserved role of Parkinson-associated DJ-1 metabolites in sperm motility, mitosis, and embryonic development
2021-01-17
Abstract excerpt
Fertility rates in the developing world have dramatically dropped in the last decades. This drop is likely due to a decline in sperm quality and women having children at older ages. Loss of function mutations in DJ-1 , a Parkinson’s associated gene, are linked to alterations in multiple cellular processes such as mitochondrial activity, ROS production or sperm motility and lead to an early onset of Parkinson’s di...
