Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease involving the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra in the brain.
Background

Background Risk factors associated with Parkinson's
disease:
1) Age2) Viral infection3) Family history4) Male gender5) Environmental: Toxins, repeated head injury

Background Neurotransmission is dependent on synaptic
proteins.

Virus types associated with Parkinson's disease:
1. Influenza type A2. H.I.V3. Pox 4. HCV

BackgroundNumerous Viruses are
neurotropic and induce inflammation.
Secondary consequence can be Parkinsonism.
1918 Influenza pandemic concurrent with encephalitis lethargica 1916-1927 (Ravenholt and Foege, 1982).

Background Neurons express Toll Like Receptors.

Background Polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (Poly I:C).
Immunostimulant used to simulate viral infections.
Synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA which is a molecular pattern associated with viral infection.
Recognized by TLR3 inducing NFĸB and production of cytokines.

6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA).
Neurotoxic synthetic organic compound.
Used with selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor.
Background
![Page 11: Investigation of the effects of innate immune activation](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f135651a28aba5098b45e9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Expect 6-OHDA to have a retrograde loss of Tyrosine Hydroxylase -positive neurons in the substania nigra. (Debeir, Ginestet et al. 2005)
Expect to see increased levels of PSD95 because it inhibits D1 signalling by reduced D1 expression at cell surface as a consequence of enhanced constitutive endocytosis. (Porras, Berthet et al.)
Background

SH-SY5Y cells.
Sub cloned and isolated from human neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH.
Express Dopaminergic markers.
Background
![Page 13: Investigation of the effects of innate immune activation](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f135651a28aba5098b45e9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
H1: If a cell culture system is infected with a Virus or Neurotoxin it will change expression in synaptic proteins.
H0: If a cell culture system is infected with a Virus or Neurotoxin it will not change expression in synaptic proteins.
Hypothesis
![Page 14: Investigation of the effects of innate immune activation](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f135651a28aba5098b45e9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
To determine if viral infection in a cell culture system results in expression changes in synaptic proteins Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH) and Post Synaptic Density 95 (PSD-95)
This will be achieved by treating SHSY5Y cells with a viral mimetic Poly I:C and a Neurotoxin 6-OHDA.
Western blotting will measure synaptic protein expression patterns.
