RFI alert🚨 To further GP2's mission of improving our understanding of the genetic architecture of #ParkinsonsDisease, #GP2 is launching a #RequestForInformation. This RFI aims to bring together academic and industry researchers located in the Middle East and North Africa region to join #GP2. If you are a researcher from this region or know someone who is, check out and share the RFI: gp2.org/opportunities/

Parkinson's disease (#PD) involves dysregulated neuroimmune crosstalk and gut-brain axis inflammation. In their recent preprint, Team Liddle assessed the mechanisms linking iron dysregulation and immune dysfunction to gastrointestinal dysfunction that is seen in many individuals living with #ParkinsonsDisease. Check out their latest #preprint to learn more about their findings. https://bit.ly/486FrK8

In this #preprint, Team Strick studied the perimovement activity of neurons in non-human primates before and after the induction of #parkinsonism by administration of MPTP. Their results indicate that changes in the timing of task-related neural activity of the internal segment of the globus pallidus (GPi) correlate with the severity of motor impairments.

In their recent preprint, Team Strick used high-resolution connectomics to demonstrate the existence of a non-canonical, open loop circuit linking the limbic ventral putamen to the motor cortex in the human brain. These findings shed light on the mechanisms underlying "paradoxical kinesia" in patients with #ParkinsonsDisease. Read their #preprint here: https://bit.ly/3N9yjmp

Reduced olfaction is a common feature of typical #ParkinsonsDisease and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Team Schlossmacher created a simplified smell test based on seven specific odorants that can distinguish PD/DLB patients from healthy controls. Read more about their tests in their #preprint here: https://bit.ly/3Y8pcZE

Team Hurley is interested in understanding the principles behind how organelle-localized transmembrane cargo receptors initiate selective autophagy. In this work, the team elucidates the molecular principles of selective autophagy pathways, discovering that autophagosome biogenesis can be initiated via two pathways.

The stability of complex networks is crucial to ensure proper function, but real-time control can be challenging. A recent preprint from Team Biederer proposes using vibrational control on network edges instead of nodes to stabilize systems, providing graph-theoretic conditions and effective design methods.
