TL;DR

It is proposed that a systems-level approach can be taken where PD is understood as a disease characterized by the imbalance in proteostasis, and potential treatment modalities include small molecules targeting lysosome function, CMA enhancers, gene therapy, and antibodies against extracellular α-synuclein.

Neuroinflammation and Autophagy in Neurodegeneration: Cellular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies.

Neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), are characterized by progressive neuronal dysfunction and loss, often accompanied by toxic protein aggregation and chronic neuroinflammation. Increasing evidence indicates that...

Cellular and systemic modifiers of alpha-synuclein proteostasis

Abstract Ageing is a primary risk factor for neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD). As individuals age, their cells become less efficient in maintaining protein homeostasis, leading to an increased likelihood of protein misfolding and aggregation. A hallmark of PD and other synucleinopathies i...

Microglial polarisation imbalance and receptor-targeted therapeutics in Parkinson's disease.

This network is interconnected, and understanding it is crucial in the creation of therapies that attempt to restore proteostasis, inhibit inflammation, and increase neurotrophic signalling to delay or prevent PD progression.

Proteostasis (in)action: the role of co-pathologies in neurodegenerative disease

Abstract Clinically distinct neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), share in common progressive neuronal dysfunction and cell death associated with the accumulation of misfolded proteins. Central to these processes are the cellul...
