α-Synuclein is the major component of Lewy bodies, Lewy neurites, and glial cytoplasmic inclusions. It plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple system atrophy, and other synucleinopathies. However, the pathogenesis and neurodegenerative effects of α-synuclein remain unknown. In this study, we established an α-synuclein and an α-synuclein-EGFP overexpressing...
Objective: Oxidative stress is a candidate mechanism for ethanol neuropathology in fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Our overall objective was to investigate the hypothesis that ethanol neurotoxicity involves production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) with negative downstream consequences for mitochondrial membrane potential and neuron survival. Methods: We use P4 cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs)...
Our previous studies reveal that long-term exposure of ovariectomized rodents to d-galactose results in pathophysiologic alterations associated with Alzheimer’s disease. The current study was to address whether mitochondrial dysfunction was involved in the pathogenesis of this model. Ovariectomized mice were administered intraperitoneally with d-galctose (100 mg/kg body weight) once a day for 8 weeks...
