This book reviews the functions and roles of DJ-1 in various oxidative stress-related diseases and applications of DJ-1 and its binding compounds to the diseases. The DJ-1 gene was first found to be a novel oncogene in 1997 and later, in 2003, also found to be a causative gene for a familial form of Parkinson’s disease (PD), park7. The DJ-1 gene is therefore the first gene discovered that is known to cause cancer and neurodenegerative diseases, including PD. The research field has expanded as the research has developed. Thus this volume begins with a general introduction of DJ-1, and explains the history and research development to understand the following chapters. Those chapters present the roles of DJ-1 in various oxidative stress-related diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases, as well as cancer, diabetes, and fertility. Moreover, several chapters present evidence that DJ-1 is useful for therapeutic strategies against these diseases. The reader will discover that DJ-1 is a promising protein both for basic cell biology and for the mechanism and therapy for oxidative stress-related diseases.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the most common movement neurodegenerative disease affecting approximately 1% of the population over 60. Though originally thought to be sporadic in nature, a genetic component is increasingly being linked to the disease. Of these genes, mutations in DJ-1 (PARK7) cause early onset autosomal recessive PD. Initial workup of the DJ-1 protein has suggested that it may act in the cell by combatting oxidative stress though the mechanism by which it does so is unclear. Thus, though much work has attempted to elucidate a function at the biochemical, cellular and organismal level, the overt physiological role of DJ-1 remains elusive. In this dissertation, we explore the mechanisms through which DJ-1 confers neuroprotection, particularly in the case of oxidative stress insult. We demonstrate that DJ-1 acts through the pro-survival protein AKT to accomplish its neuroprotective function. Moreover, we note that DJ-1 likely serves its role as an antioxidant through the NRF2 master antioxidant regulator pathway a pathway that is, itself, likely to be regulated by AKT. Together, our results demonstrate that neuroprotection by DJ-1 is done through a signaling pathway involving both AKT and NRF2 and that disruption of the former in PD likely results in abolishing this signaling pathway. Finally, to generate a better animal model of PD, we demonstrate that backcrossing DJ-1 null mice - which originally did not demonstrate any gross histopathological or behavioral phenotypes --display unilateral dopaminergic degeneration that progresses to bilateral degeneration with aging, a feature reminiscent of classical PD progression. Collectively, this thesis takes a two-sided approach to address the biochemical and physiological functions of DJ-1 within the cell and the mouse in hopes of elucidating mechanisms of neuronal death to devise better translational therapies.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive loss of motor function resulting from dopaminergic neuronal death in the substantia nigra pars compacta leading to subsequent decreased striatal dopamine levels. The majority of PD cases are diagnosed as sporadic in nature, however 10% - 15% of patients show a positive family history of the disease. While many genes have been found to be implicated in the familial form of PD, early-onset autosomal recessive PD has been associated with mutations in PARK7, a gene which codes for the protein DJ-1. While there are many proposed roles of DJ-1 across numerous systems, the function of DJ-1 in relation to the development and progression of PD remains largely unclear. A first step towards determining this function is the creation of biologically relevant cell models of PD. The goal of this work was to design a representative cell model of DJ-1-associated PD in order to further study DJ-1 with the intention of elucidating its relevant function in relation of PD pathogenesis.

Oxidative stress is the result of an imbalance in pro-oxidant/antioxidant homeostasis that leads to the generation of toxic reactive oxygen species. Brain cells are continuously exposed to reactive oxygen species generated by oxidative metabolism, and in certain pathological conditions defense mechanisms against oxygen radicals may be weakened and/or overwhelmed. DNA is a potential target for oxidative damage, and genomic damage can contribute to neuropathogenesis. It is important therefore to identify tools for the quantitative analysis of DNA damage in models on neurological disorders. This book presents detailed information on various neurodegenerative disorders and their connection with oxidative stress. This information will provide clinicians with directions to treat these disorders with appropriate therapy and is also of vital importance for the drug industries for the design of new drugs for treatment of degenerative disorders. * Contains the latest information on the subject of neurodegenerative disorders* Reflects on various factors involved in degeneration and gives suggestions for how to tackle these problems

There is a widespread consensus that use of antioxidants as a therapeutic approach may counteract free radical mediated pathologies. However, the role of antioxidants in normal physiology and redox signaling is still in its infancy. Since oxidative stress is related to various diseases and pathologies, scientists are eager to study the disease in humans, but it is not always ethical to study all the aspects of the disease in humans. Thus, it becomes mandatory to study the disease process and the mechanisms behind it through experimental models which generally involve animals, in vitro/cell culture studies, primates and even humans to a certain extent. Studies on Experimental Models contains data on the experimental models or review of such models of oxidative stress in various diseases. It is structured into six sections, which are as follows: diabetes, cardiovascular, neurology, ocular diseases, toxicology/environmental and in vitro/tissue culture. Each section presents a sketch of models in humans, animals and in vitro methods. Taken together, they comprise a valuable reference for basic and clinical scientists, one aimed at contributing to the advancement of oxidative stress research using appropriate animal models.

Homeostatic Control of Brain Function offers a broad view of brain health and diverse perspectives for potential treatments, targeting key areas such as mitochondria, the immune system, epigenetic changes, and regulatory molecules such as ions, neuropeptides, and neuromodulators. Loss of homeostasis becomes expressed as a diverse array of neurological disorders. Each disorder has multiple comorbidities - with some crossing over several conditions - and often disease-specific treatments remain elusive. When current pharmacological therapies result in ineffective and inadequate outcomes, therapies to restore and maintain homeostatic functions can help improve brain health, no matter the diagnosis. Employing homeostatic therapies may lead to future cures or treatments that address multiple comorbidities. In an age where brain diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's are ever present, the incorporation of homeostatic techniques could successfully promote better overall brain health. Key Features include · A focus on the homeostatic controls that significantly depend on the way one lives, eats, and drinks. · Highlights from emerging research in non-pharmaceutical therapies including botanical medications, meditation, diet, and exercise. · Incorporation of homeostatic therapies into existing basic and clinical research paradigms. · Extensive scientific basic and clinical research ranging from molecules to disorders. · Emerging practical information for improving homeostasis. · Examples of homeostatic therapies in preventing and delaying dysfunction. Both editors, Detlev Boison and Susan Masino, bring their unique expertise in homeostatic research to the overall scope of this work. This book is accessible to all with an interest in brain health; scientist, clinician, student, and lay reader alike.
