Omics

  • At least cell model required
  • Resource: (Silberring, 2010 #1148) Good!

DJ-1 (Park7)

  • Location: cytoplasm, mitochondrial matrix, and intermembrane space.
  • DJ-1 is a mitochondrial protein involved in the protection against oxidative stress (Xiong et al. 2009; Do-1 also promotes ubiquitination and the degradation of Parkin substrates via interaction with Parkin and PINK1 (Xiong et al. 2009; Repaso-Aguilar et al. 2015); Do-1 mutations result in increased oxidative stress and impaired mitochondrial dynamics and function (Manabeni Kim et al. 2004; Repaso et al. 2007).
  • Function:
    • KO → No abnormalities
    • (KD) results in dopamine-knockdown reduces dopamine-Parkinsonism that develops in the mid-twenties, resembling Parkin- and PINK1-linked forms.

MSA-P: predominantly parkinsonian features. The putamen is hypotensive on T2-weighted MRI and may show an increased nominal hyposignal of the putamen (so-called T2 thinning).
MSA-C: predominantly cerebellar ataxia. (size of the cerebellum and brainstem) may be abnormally low; in some cases, where T2 reflects atrophy of the pontocerebellar fibers that manifest in T2 signal intensity in its atrophic zone.
