Neurodegenerative pathways in Parkinson's disease: therapeutic strategies.
Parkinson's disease (PD), considered one of the major neurological disorders, is characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the pars compacta of the substantia nigra and by the presence of intraneuronal cytoplasmic inclusions called Lewy bodies. The causes for degeneration of PD neurons remain unclear, however, recent findings contributed to clarify this issue. This review will discus...

متن کاملTranslational enhancers of EAAT2: therapeutic implications for neurodegenerative disease.
Glutamate excitotoxicity contributes to the neuronal injury and death associated with many neurodegenerative diseases. The glutamate transporter EAAT2, which is primarily localized on astrocytic processes, facilitates glutamate clearance from synapses, thus preventing neuronal damage. In this issue of the JCI, Kong et al. characterize a compound that upregulates EAAT2 translation, thereby incre...
متن کاملTau phosphorylation: the therapeutic challenge for neurodegenerative disease.
The microtubule-associated protein tau is integral to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as several related disorders, termed tauopathies, in which tau is deposited in affected brain regions. In the tauopathies, pathological tau is in an elevated state of phosphorylation and is aberrantly cleaved. It also exhibits abnormal conformations and becomes aggregated, resulting in ne...
متن کاملExosomes: Origins and Therapeutic Potential for Neurodegenerative Disease
Exosomes, small lipid bilayer vesicles, are part of the transportable cell secretome that can be taken up by nearby recipient cells or can travel through the bloodstream to cells in distant organs. Selected cellular cytoplasm containing proteins, RNAs, and other macromolecules is packaged into secreted exosomes. This cargo has the potential to affect cellular function in either healthy or patho...
