Glycation potentiates α-synuclein-associated neurodegeneration in synucleinopat...
Miranda, Hugo Vicente; Szegő, Éva M.; Oliveira, Luís M. A.; Breda, Carlo; Darendelioglu, Ekrem; Oliveira, Rita M. de; Ferreira, Diana G.α-Synuclein misfolding and aggregation is a hallmark in Parkinson’s disease and in several other neurodegenerative diseases known as synucleinopathies. The toxic properties of α-synuclein are conserved from yeast to man, but the precise underpinnings of the cellular pathologies associated are still elusive, complicating the development of effective therapeutic strategies. Combining molecular genetics with targe...

The mechanism of sirtuin 2-mediated exacerbation of alpha-synuclein toxicity in...
de Oliveira, Rita Machado; Vicente Miranda, Hugo; Francelle, Laetitia; Pinho, Raquel; Szegö, Éva M.; Martinho, Renato; Munari, FrancescaSirtuin genes have been associated with aging and are known to affect multiple cellular pathways. Sirtuin 2 was previously shown to modulate proteotoxicity associated with age-associated neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer and Parkinson disease (PD). However, the precise molecular mechanisms involved remain unclear. Here, we provide mechanistic insight into the interplay between sirtuin 2 and α-synucl...
