The neurodegenerative process of Parkinson’s disease (PD) involves autophagy impairment and oxidative stress. Therefore, we wanted to determine whether stimulation of autophagy protects dopaminergic cell death induced by oxidative stress in a PD model. Since environmental exposure to herbicides increases the risk to develop PD, the experimental model was established using the herbicide paraquat, which...
We have previously demonstrated that α-synuclein overexpression increases the membrane conductance of dopaminergic-like cells. Although α-synuclein is thought to play a central role in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson’s disease, multiple system atrophy, and diffuse Lewy body disease, the mechanism of action is not completely understood. In this study, we sought...
