Abstract Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is the most common motor neuron disease leading to death within 2-5 years. Currently available drugs can only slightly prolong survival. Despite progress that has been achieved in unravelling molecular mechanisms of so far, underlying pathophysiology not fully understood. We present novel insights into Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1)- and particular Fused In Sarcoma (FUS)-ALS by revealing a putatively central role Parkinson’s (PD) associated glyoxylase DJ-1 its products glycolic acid (GA) D-lactic (DL). Combined, but single, treatment with GA DL restored axonal trafficking deficits mitochondria lysosomes FUS- SOD1-ALS patient-derived motoneurons (MNs). This was accompanied restoration mitochondrial membrane potential as well fragmentation (FUS-ALS) or elongation (SOD1-ALS). Furthermore, cytoplasmic mislocalization FUS recruitment DNA damage sites. further show despite presenting an early transport deficiency well, TDP-43 MNs did share this mechanism. While points towards necessity individualized (gene-) specific therapy stratification, it also suggests therapeutic targets across different gene variants ALS. Thus, we introduce putative for ALS based on combination two substances which might be interesting drug candidate subsets cases other neurodegenerative diseases characterized depolarization.

The degeneration of dopamine (DA) neurons is known to be associated with defects in mitochondrial biogenesis caused by aging, environmental factors, or mutations genes, leading Parkinson's disease (PD). As PD has not yet been successfully cured, the strategy using small molecule drugs protect and restore a promising direction. This study evaluated efficacy synthetic chiisanoside (CSS) identified leaves Acanthopanax sessiliflorus prevent symptoms. results show that 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) model, CSS pretreatment can effectively alleviate reactive oxygen species generation apoptosis SH-SY5Y cells, thereby lessening C. elegans model including DA neuron degeneration, dopamine-mediated food sensitivity behavioral disorders, shortened lifespan. Mechanistically, we found could expression proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1-alpha (PGC-1α), key biogenesis, its downstream related genes inhibited 6-OHDA. We further confirmed this due enhanced activity parkin ubiquitination degradation PGC-1α inhibitor protein Zinc finger 746 (ZNF746). Parkin siRNA treatment abolished effect CSS. Furthermore, 6-OHDA-induced miR-181a, which targets parkin. CSS's ability reverse reduction activation was after transfection anti-miR-181a miR-181a mimics. Therefore, neuroprotective mainly promotes regulating miR-181a/Parkin/ZNF746/PGC-1α axis. potentially opportunity developed into prevention agents.

Mitochondria, pivotal cell organelles recognized for their paramount role in cellular energy production, play a crucial part neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's (AD), and multiple sclerosis when functionality falters. Among the repercussions of mitochondrial dysfunction, neuroinflammation emerges prominent concern, eliciting an upsurge generation reactive oxygen species (ROS). The deleterious effects these ROS on nerve cells induce cascade toward neurodegeneration.

Abstract Mitochondria carry their own circular DNA but heavily depend on the import of nucleus-encoded proteins. During human brain evolution, a rapid increase in size and neuronal complexity was accompanied by elevated energy requirements, possibly explaining why neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) Alzheimer’s well mental like schizophrenia—for which mitochondrial dysfunction is hallmark—are specific to humans. This chapter summarizes current understanding multifaceted involvement signaling normal aging neurological conditions with focus PD. Specifically, it concentrates possible phylogenetic components quality control, calcium dyshomeostasis, bioenergetics, maintenance mitochondria-mediated apoptosis inflammation. Finally, discusses challenges mitochondria-targeted therapy approaches that aim at preventing demise dopaminergic neurons PD patients.
