Targeting α-synuclein aggregation and its role in mitochondrial dysfunction in Parkinson's disease

Md Ezazul Haque et al.

Summary: In Parkinson's disease, the aggregated alpha-synuclein in Lewy bodies and mitochondrial dysfunction play crucial roles in neurodegeneration, with interactions between aggregated alpha-synuclein and mitochondria potentially leading to neuronal loss, making it an emerging drug target for Parkinson's disease treatment.

ERRγ ligand HPB2 upregulates BDNF-TrkB and enhances dopaminergic neuronal phenotype

Hyo In Kim et al.

Summary: This study investigates the role of ERRγ in regulating the BDNF signaling pathway and DAergic neuronal phenotype. The ERRγ agonist HPB2 was designed and synthesized, and its effects on BDNF expression and DAergic neuronal phenotype were confirmed in cellular experiments and a mouse model.

Disruption of mitochondrial complex I induces progressive parkinsonism

Patricia Gonzalez-Rodriguez et al.

Summary: Loss of functional mitochondrial complex I in dopaminergic neurons can lead to a shift in metabolism in mice, causing Parkinson's disease-like symptoms. This study challenges the traditional paradigm of Parkinson's disease by showing that dysfunction of mitochondrial complex I alone is sufficient to cause progressive parkinsonism.

Estrogen-related Receptor Alpha (ERRα) is Required for PGC-1α-dependent Gene Expression in the Mouse Brain

L. J. McMeekin et al.

Summary: This study identified ERRa as necessary for normal expression of PGC-1a-dependent genes in neurons, with a strong correlation in expression between ERRa and PGC-1a in the brain. In ERRa null mice, PGC-1a-dependent genes were reduced in multiple brain regions, leading to behavioral abnormalities without severe motor impairments seen in PGC-1a null mice.

Hippocampal network hyperexcitability in young transgenic mice expressing human mutant alpha-synuclein

Clare Tweedy et al.

Summary: In this study, network hyperexcitability was observed in early-stage DLB mice models, indicating that impairment of neuronal/synaptic function mediated by alpha-synuclein may lead to this phenomenon, even without the loss of PV interneurons. The therapeutic potential of targeting network excitability in the early stages of alpha-synucleinopathies like DLB should be further explored.

Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Synaptic and Axon Degeneration in Parkinson's Disease

Nolwazi Z. Gcwensa et al.

Summary: Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with no treatment to slow its progression. Evidence suggests that synaptic impairments may precede neuronal cell loss, highlighting the need for novel therapeutics targeting the synapse. Genetic studies implicate several genes in synaptic dysfunction in PD, and future studies should explore the roles of implicated genes across multiple neuron types and circuits.

Dysregulation of PGC-1α-Dependent Transcriptional Programs in Neurological and Developmental Disorders: Therapeutic Challenges and Opportunities

Laura J. McMeekin et al.

Summary: The study highlights the role of transcriptional regulation in mitochondrial function in neurons, with a focus on PGC-1 alpha. Dysregulation of PGC-1 alpha-dependent pathways in various diseases is discussed, emphasizing the relationship between disease-specific cellular vulnerability and cell-type-specific patterns of PGC-1 alpha expression. The challenges inherent to therapeutic targeting of PGC-1 alpha-related transcriptional programs are also considered in the context of regulating mitochondrial and synaptic genes.

Function and Regulation of ALDH1A1-Positive Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic Neurons in Motor Control and Parkinson's Disease

Kathleen Carmichael et al.

Summary: This review focuses on a distinct group of dopamine-producing neurons, which show significant loss in Parkinson's disease patients. These neurons can be easily identified by selective expression of ALDH1A1 and play a crucial role in regulating movement intensity. The study summarizes the connectivity and functionality of these neurons, as well as the mechanisms regulating their activity and their implications for potential Parkinson's disease treatment.

Cardiac-Specific Overexpression of ERRγ in Mice Induces Severe Heart Dysfunction and Early Lethality

Jaime Lasheras et al.

Summary: Proper cardiac function relies on the coordinated expression of multiple gene networks related to fuel utilization, mitochondrial ATP production, heart contraction, and ion transport. Transcriptional regulators like ERRs play a crucial role in regulating these gene networks. Overexpression of ERR gamma in the heart may lead to cardiac pathogenic responses, including heart failure and dilated cardiomyopathy.
