摘要:

帕金森病(PD)是一种常见的神经退行性疾病,其运动障碍与α-突触核蛋白等聚集蛋白在神经元胞浆内沉积有关。作为细胞内降解的主要途径之一,自噬-溶酶体途径(ALP)在清除这些蛋白质方面发挥着重要作用。越来越多的证据表明,ALP的上调可能有助于清除α-突触核蛋白聚集体,并防止帕金森病多巴胺能神经元的退化。此外,与帕金森病发病机制相关的多个基因与 ALP 的改变密切相关。因此,ALP有望成为治疗帕金森病的治疗靶点。此综述主要描述了帕金森病相关基因对 ALP 的影响,以及靶向ALP的潜在化学和基因治疗策略在帕金森病中的应用。

Abstract: Parkinson’s disease is a common neurodegenerative disease with movement disorders associated with the intracytoplasmic deposition of aggregate proteins such as α-synuclein in neurons. As one of the major intracellular degradation pathways, the autophagy-lysosome pathway plays an important role in eliminating these proteins. Accumulating evidence has shown that upregulation of the autophagy-lysosome pathway may contribute to the clearance of α-synuclein aggregates and protect against degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson’s disease. Moreover, multiple genes associated with the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease are intimately linked to alterations in the autophagy-lysosome pathway. Thus, this pathway appears to be a promising therapeutic target for treatment of Parkinson’s disease. In this review, we briefly introduce the machinery of autophagy. Then, we provide a description of the effects of Parkinson’s disease–related genes on the autophagy-lysosome pathway. Finally, we highlight the potential chemical and genetic therapeutic strategies targeting the autophagy–lysosome pathway and their applications in Parkinson’s disease.
