Abstract

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by nigrostriatal dopaminergic (DA) neurodegeneration. There is a critical need for neuroprotective therapies, particularly those that do not require direct intracranial administration. Small molecule inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDIs) are neuroprotective in in vitro and in vivo models of PD, however it is unknown whether Class IIa-specific HDIs are neuroprotective when administered peripherally. Here we show that 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) treatment induces protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent nuclear accumulation of the Class IIa histone deacetylase (HDAC)5 in SH-SY5Y cells and cultured DA neurons in vitro. Treatment of these cultures with the Class IIa-specific HDI, MC1568, partially protected against 6-OHDA-induced cell death. In the intrastriatal 6-OHDA lesion in vivo rat model of PD, MC1568 treatment (0.5 mg/kg i.p.) for 7 days reduced forelimb akinesia and partially protected DA neurons in the substantia nigra and their striatal terminals from 6-OHDA-induced neurodegeneration. MC1568 treatment prevented 6-OHDA-induced increases in microglial activation in the striatum and substantia nigra. Furthermore, MC1568 treatment decreased 6-OHDA-induced increases in nuclear HDAC5 in nigral DA neurons. These data suggest that peripheral administration of Class IIa-specific HDIs may be a potential therapy for neuroprotective in PD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
