This study shows that chronic hyperactivation of midbrain dopamine neurons leads to their preferential degeneration, suggesting increased neural activity may contribute to Parkinson's disease pathology.

This paper introduces GEDI, a fluorescent biosensor that detects early irreversible commitment to cell death in neurons, enabling real-time and high-throughput analysis of neurodegeneration.

This study shows that loss of Drp1 in neurons worsens memory deficits in mice with mutant hAPP, revealing a protective role of mitochondrial fission against hAPP-induced pathology.
