TLDR
A synthetic overview of cell-autonomous mechanisms that are likely to participate in DA cell death in both sporadic and inherited forms of the disease is presented and it is shown how these mechanisms may mutually cooperate to promote neuronal death.

The SH-SY5Y cell line in Parkinson's disease research: a systematic review

TL;DR: An overview of the cell source, culture conditions, differentiation protocols, methods/approaches used to mimic PD and the preclinical validation of the SH-SY5Y findings by employing alternative cellular and animal models is described.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: New Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Perspectives.

TL;DR: Increasing evidence supports the critical role for mitochondrial dysfunction in the development of sporadic PD, while the involvement of familial PD-related genes in the regulation of mitochondrial biology has been expanded by the discovery of new mitochondria-associated disease loci and the identification of their novel functions.

Current understanding of the molecular mechanisms in Parkinson's disease: Targets for potential treatments

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the current understanding of the molecular signaling pathways involved in Parkinson’s disease, particularly within the context of how genetic and environmental factors contribute to the initiation and progression of this disease is provided.

Mutation in the α-synuclein gene identified in families with Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: A mutation was identified in the α-synuclein gene, which codes for a presynaptic protein thought to be involved in neuronal plasticity, in the Italian kindred and in three unrelated families of Greek origin with autosomal dominant inheritance for the PD phenotype.

Alpha-synuclein in Lewy bodies.

TL;DR: Strong staining of Lewy bodies from idiopathic Parkinson's disease with antibodies for α-synuclein, a presynaptic protein of unknown function which is mutated in some familial cases of the disease, indicates that the LewY bodies from these two diseases may have identical compositions.

The unfolded protein response: controlling cell fate decisions under ER stress and beyond

TL;DR: Insight is provided into the regulatory mechanisms and signalling crosstalk of the three branches of the UPR, which are initiated by the stress sensors protein kinase RNA-like ER kinase (PERK), inositol-requiring protein 1α (IRE1α) and activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6).
