Upregulation of Cysteine Protease Cathepsin X in the 6-Hydroxydopamine Model of Parkinson’s Disease

Upregulation of Cysteine Protease Cathepsin X in the 6-Hydroxydopamine Model of Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of midbrain dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). In vitro, a contribution to neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity has been shown for the lysosomal protease cathepsin X; however, its expression...
