Abstract

Mitochondrial dysfunction plays significant roles in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's Disease (PD). The inactivation of c-Myc, a down-stream gene of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, may contribute to the mitochondria dysfunction. Inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) with Alsterpaullone (Als) can activate the down-stream events of Wnt signaling. Here, we investigated the protective roles of Als against MPP+-induced cell apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells. The data showed that Als effectively rescued c-Myc from the MPP+-induced decline via Wnt signaling. Furthermore, Als protected SH-SY5Y cells from the MPP+-induced mitochondrial fission and cell apoptosis. However, the protective roles of Als were lost under β-catenin-deficient conditions. These findings indicate that Als, a GSK-3β inhibitor, attenuated the MPP+-induced mitochondria-dependent apoptotic via up-regulation of the Wnt signaling.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 September 2018.
All research outputs
#2,696,268
of 23,103,436 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
#464
of 4,284 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#56,796
of 334,794 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
#21
of 151 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,103,436 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 88th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,284 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 334,794 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 151 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
