Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In mice brain, phosphorylation at serine 276 residue of NFκB (p65-pS276) expressed predominantly in the nuclei of striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs). Dopaminergic stimuli induced dose-dependent p65-pS276 expression pattern in differential functional compartments. This finding indicated that p65-pS276 was involved in the functions associated with striatum under the control of dopamine signaling. P65-pS276 bound to DNA and enhanced transcriptional activity. This resulted in neuronal activation of MSNs as determined by c-fos mRNA expression in these neurons. The specific inhibitor of p65-pS276 successfully alleviated L-dopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease mice model. These findings elucidated a new signaling cascade in the striatum, which was responsible for the mechanism in manifesting movement disorders. Targeting p65-pS276 might contribute to developing a new therapy for L-dopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson’s disease.
