Abstract:

Although Parkinson’s disease is the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder, the mechanisms of pathogenesis remain poorly understood. Recent findings have shown that deregulation of the autophagy-lysosome pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. This review summarizes the most recent findings and discusses the unique role of the autophagy-lysosome pathway in Parkinson’s disease to highlight the possibility of Parkinson’s disease treatment strategies that incorporate autophagy-lysosome pathway modulation.

Key words: autophagy-lysosome pathway, Parkinson’s disease, pathogenesis, review
