The role of microglial autophagy in Parkinson’s disease

Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Studies have shown that abnormal accumulation of α-synuclein (α-Syn) in the substantia nigra is a specific pathological characteristic of PD. Abnormal accumulation of α-Syn in PD induces the activation of microglia. Microglia, which are immune cells in the central nervous system, are involved in the function and regulation of inflammation in PD by autophagy. The role of microglial autophagy in the pathophysiology of PD has become a h… Show more

“…Furthermore, microglia perform autophagy process to engulf neuron-released αsynuclein for degradation. Autophagy dysfunction and αsynuclein accumulation widely contribute to PD development and pathophysiology [36]. Markedly, "RAGE", "autophagy" and "α-synuclein" were among the top keywords used in the HMGB1-PD research.…”

“…Multiple pro- and anti-inflammatory neuroimmune signaling pathways have been demonstrated to coordinately regulate the status of microglia activation [ 6 , 7 ]. Abnormal microglia activation (neuroinflammation) has been implicated as a major risk factor contributing to the pathogenesis of multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s diseases (ADs) [ 8 , 9 ], Parkinson’s diseases (PDs) [ 10 , 11 ], amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) [ 12 ], as well as recently SUDs [ 13 , 14 ]. NLRP3 inflammasome belongs to the superfamily of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns.…”

“…Autophagy dysfunction has been closely related with pathogenesis of many neurodegenerative diseases [14]. In this regard, it is important to note that autophagy can also serve as controlling mechanism of the metabolic and immune status of microglia and thus balance neuroinflammatory response [14][15][16]. For instance, ATG7 gene-deficient microglial cells, show transcriptional and functional similarity to the functionally incompetent microglia from the aged wild-type mice [17].…”
