Journal ArticleDOI

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2983 more
- 08 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A frequent LRRK2 gene mutation associated with autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease.

Alessio Di Fonzo, +18 more
- 29 Jan 2005 - 
TL;DR: Findings confirm the association of LRRK2 with neurodegeneration, and identify a common mutation associated with dominantly inherited Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

A common missense variant in the LRRK2 gene, Gly2385Arg, associated with Parkinson's disease risk in Taiwan.

Alessio Di Fonzo, +12 more
- 22 Apr 2006 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that the LRRK2 Gly2385Arg is the first identified, functionally relevant variant, which acts as common risk factor for sporadic Parkinson’s disease in the population of Chinese ethnicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adaptive deep brain stimulation in a freely moving parkinsonian patient

Manuela Rosa, +8 more
- 01 Jun 2015 - 
TL;DR: The future of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) lies in new closed‐loop systems that continuously supply the implanted stimulator with new settings obtained by analyzing a feedback signal related to the patient's current clinical condition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive analysis of the LRRK2 gene in sixty families with Parkinson's disease.

Alessio Di Fonzo, +38 more
- 01 Mar 2006 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that pathogenic LRRK2 mutations are frequent in ADPD, and they cluster in the C-terminal half of the encoded protein, with implications both for understanding the molecular mechanisms of PD, and for directing the genetic screening in clinical practice.
