In Parkinson's Disease (PD), Substantia Nigra (SNc) dopaminergic neurons degenerate, leading to motor dysfunction. Here we report a protocol for culturing ventral midbrain neurons from a mouse expressing eGFP driven by a Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH) promoter sequence, harvesting individual fluorescent neurons from the cultures, and measuring their transcriptome using...

Dopaminergic neurons play a vital regulatory role in the brain. Their loss is associated with Parkinson's disease. In this video, we show how to generate primary cultures of central dopaminergic neurons from embryonic mouse mesencephalon. Such cultures are useful to study the extreme vulnerability of these neurons to various...

Dopamine is distinctly regulated in the midbrain nuclei, which contain the cell bodies and dendrites of the dopamine neurons. Here we describe a dissection and sample-handling approach to maximize results, and thus conclusions and insights, on dopamine regulation in the midbrain nuclei of the substantia nigra (SN) and ventral tegmental area (VTA) in...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Mitochondrial Biology
  • Exercise Physiology

Background:

  • Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous syndrome.
  • Exercise intolerance is a primary symptom of HFpEF, stemming from cardiac and peripheral factors.
  • Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in impaired oxygen utilization and exercise intolerance in HFpEF.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the role of mitochondrial biology in HFpEF pathophysiology.
  • To discuss methods for assessing mitochondrial function in humans.
  • To explore mitochondria as a therapeutic target for HFpEF.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of mitochondrial function in HFpEF.
  • Analysis of current methods for assessing human mitochondrial function.
  • Examination of evidence linking mitochondrial dysfunction to HFpEF.

Main Results:

  • Mitochondrial abnormalities significantly contribute to impaired oxygen utilization and exercise intolerance in HFpEF.
  • Various methods exist to assess mitochondrial function in clinical settings.
  • Mitochondrial dysfunction is a key factor in HFpEF pathophysiology.

Conclusions:

  • Mitochondrial function is a critical therapeutic target for HFpEF.
  • Clinical trials targeting mitochondrial function are ongoing and essential for developing new treatments.
  • Further research into mitochondrial agents holds promise for improving HFpEF symptoms.
