Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we aim to develop small chemicals for Parkinson's disease therapy by modulating lysosomal functions including its localization control.
First of all, we have identified polyamine metabolites inhibiting mTORC1 activity by lysosomal redistribution without any effects on lysosomal acidification. Also, we detected acetylated polyamine was elevated in serum of Parkinson's disease. I am preparing for a paper submission.
