Endonuclease G mediates α-synuclein cytotoxicity during Parkinson's disease
Malfunctioning of the protein α-synuclein is critically involved in the demise of dopaminergic neurons relevant to Parkinson's disease. Nonetheless, the precise mechanisms explaining this pathogenic neuronal cell death remain elusive. Endonuclease G (EndoG) is a mitochondrially localized nuclease that triggers DNA degradation and cell death upon translocation from mitochondria to the nucleus. H...
متن کاملEndonuclease-G and the pathways to dopaminergic neurodegeneration: a question of location?
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterised by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and accumulation of pathological inclusions containing a-synuclein termed Lewy bodies. However, to date the precise function of a-synuclein has remained elusive along with the mechanism of neuronal death. A paper published in this issue of EMBO Journal provides insight into the mechanism of a-s...
متن کاملAlpha-synuclein induced apoptosis and proliferation interacted with CD44 in human lymphocytes
Human ?-synuclein is a 140 amino acid protein with little or no secondary structure. The ?-synuclein is expressed at high levels in the brain and enriched in neural synaptic terminals but its physiological function remains largely unknown. More recently, ?-synuclein has been shown to be one of the principal componets of Lewy bodies, neuronal inclusions that are found in diverse human neurodegen...

متن کاملClioquinol-induced ordered conformational behavior in alpha-synuclein: promising relevance for therapeutic approach to Parkinson's disease
Parkinson?¦s disease (PD) is a devastating and an intricate complex neurological disorder that results from the progressive degeneration of nerve cells in Substantia nigra that controls movement. The pathological hallmark of PD is the formation of insoluble protein aggregates known as lewey bodies. Alpha-synuclein is the major constituent of these fibrillar structures. Alpha-synuclein a 140 ami...
