CY Chung, JB Koprich, H Siddiqi… - Journal of …, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
Little is known about key pathological events preceding overt neuronal degeneration in
Parkinson's disease (PD) and α-synucleinopathy. Recombinant adeno-associated virus 2-…

[HTML][HTML] Neuroinflammation mediated by IL-1β increases susceptibility of dopamine neurons to degeneration in an animal model of Parkinson's disease

JB Koprich, C Reske-Nielsen, P Mithal… - Journal of …, 2008 - Springer
Background The etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) remains elusive despite identification
of several genetic mutations. It is more likely that multiple factors converge to give rise to PD …

Animal models of α-synucleinopathy for Parkinson disease drug development

JB Koprich, LV Kalia, JM Brotchie - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2017 - nature.com
A major challenge in Parkinson disease (PD) will be to turn an emerging and expanding
pipeline of novel disease-modifying candidate compounds into therapeutics. Novel targets …

α-Synuclein-based animal models of Parkinson's disease: challenges and opportunities in a new era

NP Visanji, JM Brotchie, LV Kalia, JB Koprich… - Trends in …, 2016 - cell.com
In recent years, a new generation of animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD) based on

α-Synuclein is a protein implicated in the etiopathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD).
AAV1/2-driven overexpression of human mutated A53T-α-synuclein in rat and monkey …

Treatment with trehalose prevents behavioral and neurochemical deficits produced in an AAV α-synuclein rat model of Parkinson's disease

Q He, JB Koprich, Y Wang, W Yu, B Xiao… - Molecular …, 2016 - Springer
The accumulation of misfolded α-synuclein in dopamine (DA) neurons is believed to be of
major importance in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Animal models of PD, …

[HTML][HTML] Progressive neurodegeneration or endogenous compensation in an animal model of Parkinson's disease produced by decreasing doses of alpha-synuclein

JB Koprich, TH Johnston, P Huot, MG Reyes… - PloS one, 2011 - journals.plos.org
