摘要: The dopaminergic (DAergic) nigrostriatal tract has an intrinsic regenerative capacity which can be impaired in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Alpha-synuclein (aSyn) is a major pathogenic component PD but its impact on DAergic axonal regeneration largely unknown. In this study, we expressed variants of human aSyn by means recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors experimental paradigms regeneration. scratch lesion model vitro, both aSyn(A30P) and aSyn(A53T) significantly reduced neurite induced loss TH-immunopositive cells while aSyn(WT) showed only minor cellular neurotoxic effects. striatal density axons the 6-OHDA mouse was attenuated aSyn(A30P). However, expression levels marker GAP-43 fibers were aSyn(A53T), not associated with activation ROCK signaling pathway. Nigral cell mildly enhanced additional overexpression variants. Our findings indicate that mutations have strong neurons, may contribute to their
