Pesticides exposure as etiological factors of Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases-A mechanistic approach
2014, Toxicology LettersCitation Excerpt :Around 5% of the cases are familial forms of ALS that arise from mutations in several genes including SOD1, TARDBP, FUS, UBQLN2, C9orf72, and TAF15 (Al-Chalabi et al., 2012; Lill et al., 2011; Maccioni et al., 2001). Studies in mutations in SOD1 have provided new insight into the pathogenesis of ALS, namely the generation of reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS), dramatic gliosis characterized by abnormalities of astrocytes, widespread astrocytosis, increased expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and activated microglial cells (Almer et al., 1999; Cha et al., 2000; Nagy et al., 1994). Interestingly, the neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions of ALS are constituted by aggregates of proteins encoded by the mutated genes described above (Ince et al., 2011).
