Animal models of neurodegenerative diseases.
The prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), increases with age, and the number of affected patients is expected to increase worldwide in the next decades. Accurately understanding the etiopathogenic mechanisms of these diseases is a crucial step for developing disease-modifying drugs able to preclude their emergence or at least sl...
متن کاملInherited neurodegenerative diseases: the one-hit model of neurodegeneration.
The clinical manifestations of inherited neurodegenerative diseases are often delayed for periods from years to decades. This observation has led to the idea that, in these disorders, neurons die from cumulative damage. A critical prediction of the cumulative damage hypothesis is that the probability of neuronal death increases with age. However, we recently demonstrated, in 17 examples of neur...
متن کاملAnimal models in neurodegenerative diseases.
Ideally, animal models of neurodegenerative diseases should reproduce the clinical manifestation of the disease and a selective neuronal loss. In this review we will take as an example Parkinson's disease because its pathophysiology is well known and the neuronal loss well characterized. Indeed, Parkinson's disease is characterized by a loss of some but not all dopaminergic neurons, a loss of s...
متن کاملGenetic manipulation for inherited neurodegenerative diseases: myth or reality?
Rare genetic diseases affect about 7% of the general population and over 7000 distinct clinical syndromes have been described with the majority being due to single gene defects. This review will provide a critical overview of genetic strategies that are being pioneered to halt or reverse disease progression in inherited neurodegenerative diseases. This field of research covers a vast area and o...
