GUCY2C signaling limits dopaminergic neuron vulnerability to toxic insults
Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation within the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) are central drivers of dopaminergic (DA) neuron death in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Guanylyl cyclases and their second messenger cyclic (c)GMP support mitochondrial funct...
