Adipokines, Vitamin D, and Selected Inflammatory Biomarkers among Parkinson's Disease Patients with and without Dyskinesia: A Preliminary Examination. Metabolites 2024; 14:106. [PMID: 38392998 PMCID: PMC10890066 DOI: 10.3390/metabo14020106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD), a widely recognized neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by a spectrum of symptoms including motor fluctuations and dyskinesia. Neuroinflammation and dysregulation of adipokines are increasingly implicated in the progression of PD. This preliminary study investigated the levels of inflammatory biomarkers and adipokines, namely interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), C-reactive protein (CRP), visfatin, progranulin, and 25(OH)-vitamin D in 52 PD patients, divided equally between those with and without dyskinesia and 26 healthy controls. Significant differences in the levels of IL-6, TNF-α, visfatin, and progranulin were noted between the groups. Patients with dyskinesia exhibited notably higher IL-6 levels compared to controls, and TNF-α was significantly elevated in both PD patient groups relative to the control group. Additionally, visfatin levels were higher in PD patients without dyskinesia as opposed to those with dyskinesia, and progranulin levels were elevated in the non-dyskinetic PD group compared to controls. The findings highlight the potential role of the examined biomarkers in the pathophysiology of PD. Changes in levels of the tested inflammatory biomarkers and adipokines might be associated with Parkinson's disease and its symptoms such as dyskinesia.

Abstract
Raman scattering is an inelastic light scattering that occurs in a manner reflective of the molecular vibrations of molecular structures and chemical conditions in a given sample of interest. Energy changes in the scattered light can be assessed to determine the vibration mode and associated molecular and chemical conditions within the sample, providing a molecular fingerprint suitable for sample identification and characterization. Raman spectroscopy represents a particularly promising approach to the molecular analysis of many diseases owing to clinical advantages including its instantaneous nature and associated high degree of stability, as well as its ability to yield signal outputs corresponding to a single molecule type without any interference from other molecules as a result of its narrow peak width. This technology is thus ideally suited to the simultaneous assessment of multiple analytes. Neurodegenerative diseases represent an increasingly significant threat to global public health owing to progressive population aging, imposing a severe physical and social burden on affected patients who tend to develop cognitive and/or motor deficits beginning between the ages of 50 and 70. Owing to a relatively limited understanding of the etiological basis for these diseases, treatments are lacking for the most common neurodegenerative diseases, which include Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The present review was formulated with the goal of briefly explaining the principle of Raman spectroscopy and discussing its potential applications in the diagnosis and evaluation of neurodegenerative diseases, with a particular emphasis on the research prospects of this novel technological platform.

Neurochem Res 2022; 47:3192-3201. [PMID: 35895152 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-022-03673-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2022] [Revised: 06/25/2022] [Accepted: 06/28/2022] [Indexed: 10/16/2022]
Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease. Previously we identified tetranectin (TN) as a differentially expressed protein in the cerebrospinal fluid of PD patients, and we were surprised to find that TN knockout mice developed PD features. However, the specific role of TN in PD has not been clarified. In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of exogenous TN on cellular PD models and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. We found that exogenous TN could alleviate pre-formed-fibrils (PFFs)-induced synucleinopathies in SH-SY5Y cells and reduce the cell-to-cell transmission of α-synuclein (SYN). We also found that TN can promote the degradation of SYN by plasmin, which may account for its effect on cellular PD models. Moreover, administration of SYN/PFFs decreased the expression of TN and increased the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in SH-SY5Y cells, thereby reducing plasmin activity. Our findings depict a possible SYN-TN-plasmin interaction in which elevated levels of extracellular SYN monomers and aggregates in PD diminish the production of TN and PAI-1. Such changes lead to a reduced plasmin activity, which in turn reduces the degradation of extracellular SYN, thus forming a vicious cycle.
