Abstract Neuromelanin is a black-brownish pigment, present in so-called neuromelanin granules (NMGs) the cell bodies of dopaminergic neurons substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta . These are lost neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Although it known that lipids, proteins, environmental toxins accumulate NMGs, function NMGs has not yet been finally clarified well their origin synthesis neuromelanin. We, therefore, isolated surrounding SN tissue from control patients by laser microdissection analyzed proteomic profile tandem mass spectrometry. With our improved workflow, we were able to (1) strengthen regularly reported link between lysosomes, (2) detect tyrosine hydroxylase be highly abundant which may related (3) indicate undescribed stress (SGs) NMGs. Based on findings, cautiously hypothesize, SGs or form close proximity them, potentially due oxidative caused neuromelanin-bound metals.

Abstract Ferroptosis, a newly discovered iron-dependent cell death pathway, is characterized by lipid peroxidation and GSH depletion mediated iron metabolism morphologically, biologically genetically different from other programmed deaths. Besides, ferroptosis usually found accompanied inflammatory reactions. So far, it has been participating in the development of many kinds diseases. Macrophages are group immune cells that widely exist our body for host defense play an important role tissue homeostasis mediating inflammation regulating iron, amino acid metabolisms through their unique functions like phagocytosis efferocytosis, cytokines secretion ROS production under polarization. According to these common points characteristics macrophages functions, it’s obvious there must be relationship between ferroptosis. Therefore, review aims at revealing interaction concerning three integrating application certain curing diseases, mostly cancer. Finally, we also provide inspirations further studies therapy some diseases targeting resident distinct tissues regulate Facts Ferroptosis considered as form its nonapoptotic hydroperoxide, metabolisms. playing crucial part various including hepatic neurological cancer, etc. phagocytic cells, existing owning such production. proved participate initiating reactions maintain balance body. Recent try treat cancer altering macrophages’ polarization which damages tumor microenvironment induces cells. Open questions How do specifically? Can use treating than cancer? What can related macrophages? Is more effective therapies when diseases?

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an aging-related and the second most common neurodegenerative after Alzheimer’s disease. The main symptoms of PD are movement disorders accompanied with deficiency neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) in striatum due to cell death nigrostriatal DA neurons. Two histopathological hallmarks exist PD: cytosolic inclusion bodies termed Lewy that mainly consist α-synuclein protein, oligomers which produced by misfolding regarded be neurotoxic, causing death; black pigments neuromelanin (NM) contained neurons markedly decrease PD. synthesis human NM similar melanin melanocytes; skin via DOPAquinone (DQ) tyrosinase, whereas DAquinone (DAQ) tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC). cytoplasm highly reactive assumed oxidized spontaneously or unidentified tyrosinase DAQ then, synthesized NM.

Disruption of cerebral iron regulation appears to have a role in aging and the pathogenesis various neurodegenerative disorders. Possible unfavorable impacts accumulation include reactive oxygen species generation, induction ferroptosis, acceleration inflammatory changes. Whole-brain iron-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques allow examination macroscopic patterns brain deposits vivo, while modern analytical methods ex vivo enable determination metal-specific content inside individual cell-types, sometimes also within specific cellular compartments. The present review summarizes whole brain, cellular, subcellular diseases genetic sporadic origin. We provide an update on mechanisms, biomarkers, effects these disorders, focusing recent publications. In Parkinson’s disease, Friedreich’s several disorders neurodegeneration with group, there is focal siderosis, typically regions most pronounced neuropathological second group including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s amyotrophic lateral sclerosis shows globus pallidus, caudate, putamen, cortical regions. Yet, other such as aceruloplasminemia, neuroferritinopathy, or Wilson disease manifest diffuse deep gray matter pattern comparable even more extensive than that observed during normal aging. On microscopic level, are mostly dystrophic microglia variably accompanied by iron-laden macrophages astrocytes, implicating changes blood–brain barrier disturbance accumulation.

Iron is a trace metal element necessary to maintain life and also involved in variety of biological processes. Aging refers the natural process which physiological functions various systems, organs, tissues decline, affected by genetic environmental factors. Therefore, it imperative investigate relationship between iron metabolism aging-related diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases. During aging, accumulation nonheme destroys stability intracellular environment. The destruction homeostasis can induce cell damage producing hydroxyl free radicals, leading mitochondrial dysfunction, brain even organismal aging. In this review, we have briefly summarized role metabolic body, then discussed recent developments aging age-related finally, explored some chelators as treatment strategies for those disorders.

The heterogeneity of Parkinson's disease (PD), i.e. the various clinical phenotypes, pathological findings, genetic predispositions and probably also implicated pathophysiological pathways pose a major challenge for future research projects therapeutic trail design. We outline several concepts, mechanisms, including presumed roles α-synuclein misfolding aggregation, Lewy bodies, oxidative stress, iron melanin, deficient autophagy processes, insulin incretin signaling, T-cell autoimmunity, gut-brain axis evidence that microbial (viral) agents may induce molecular hallmarks neurodegeneration. hypothesis is discussed, whether PD might indeed be triggered by exogenous (infectious) in susceptible individuals upon entry via olfactory bulb (brain first) or gut (body-first), which would support idea mechanisms change over time. unresolved have contributed to failure past trials, attempted slow course PD. thus conclude patients need personalized approaches tailored specific phenomenological etiologic subtypes disease.

Abstract The dark pigment neuromelanin (NM) is abundant in cell bodies of dopamine (DA) neurons the substantia nigra (SN) and norepinephrine (NE) locus coeruleus (LC) human brain. During progression Parkinson’s disease (PD), together with degeneration respective catecholamine (CA) neurons, NM levels SN LC markedly decrease. However, questions remain among others on how associated PD it synthesized. biosynthesis pathway brain has been controversial because presence tyrosinase CA elusive. We propose following synthesis these neurons: (1) Tyrosine converted by tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) to L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), which aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase DA, β-hydroxylase NE; (2) DA or NE autoxidized quinone (DAQ) (NEQ); (3) DAQ NEQ eumelanic (euNM) pheomelanic (pheoNM) absence cysteine, respectively. This process involves proteins as cysteine source iron. also discuss whether amounts per neuromelanin-positive (NM + ) neuron are higher brain, quantitatively correlates neurodegeneration, an active lifestyle may reduce formation.

Abstract Since the description of some peculiar symptoms by James Parkinson in 1817, attempts have been made to define its cause or at least enlighten pathology “Parkinson’s disease (PD).” The vast majority PD subtypes and most cases sporadic share Lewy bodies (LBs) as a characteristic pathological hallmark. However, processes underlying LBs generation causal triggers are still unknown. ɑ-Synuclein (ɑ-syn, encoded SNCA gene) is major component LBs, missense mutations duplications/triplications for rare hereditary forms PD. Thus, it imperative study ɑ-syn protein pathology, including oligomerization, fibril formation, aggregation, spreading mechanisms. Furthermore, there synergistic effects pathogenic mechanisms PD, multiple factors—contributing with different ratios—appear be progression factors. For example, oxidative stress, reduced antioxidative capacity, mitochondrial dysfunction, proteasomal disturbances each suggested formation aggregation contribute neuroinflammation neural cell death. Aging also risk factor Iron, well neuromelanin (NM), show age-dependent increases, iron significantly increased Parkinsonian substantia nigra (SN). Iron-induced include changes molecular structure ɑ-syn. more recent research demonstrates that (i) detected not only dopaminergic neurons glia but various neurotransmitter systems, (ii) sympathetic nerve fibres degenerate first, (iii) “brain-first” deficiency evident before induced NM. These findings support ɑ-syn/LBs iron- NM-induced important facts via their interaction potentiate process SN. As such, multifactorial toxic posted on personal genetic assumed neurodegenerative Differences ratios factors spatiotemporal development, fact common hard identify, imply existence several phenotypical subtypes, which supported arguments from both “bottom-up/dual-hit” models.
