A transthyretin-related gene and a neuroligin-like gene prevent 6-hydroxydopamine-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration in C. elegans
The loss of dopaminergic neurons is a hallmark of Parkinson’s disease, the aetiology of which is thought to encompass increased levels of oxidative stress and protein misfolding. We used <i>C. elegans</i> to screen for genes that protect dopaminergic neurons from oxidative stress inflict...
