- W2002037377 abstract "The role of glia in Parkinson's disease (PD) is very interesting because it may open new therapeutic strategies in this disease. Traditionally it has been considered that astrocytes and microglia play different roles in PD: Astroglia are considered the “good” glia and have traditionally been supposed to be neuroprotective due to their capacity to quench free radicals and secrete neurotrophic factors, whereas microglia, considered the “bad” glia, are thought to play a critical role in neuroinflammation. The proportion of astrocytes surrounding dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra, the target nucleus for neurodegeneration in PD, is the lowest for any brain area, suggesting that DA neurons are more vulnerable in terms of glial support than any neuron in other brain areas. Astrocytes are critical in the modulation of the neurotoxic effects of many toxins that induce experimental parkinsonism and they produce substances in vitro that could modify the effects of L-DOPA from neurotoxic to neurotrophic. There is a great interest in the role of inflammation in PD, and in the brains of these patients there is evidence for microglial production of cytokines and other substances that could be harmful to neurons, suggesting that microglia of the substantia nigra could be actively involved, primarily or secondarily, in the neurodegeneration process. There is, however, evidence in favor of the role of neurotoxic diffusible signals from microglia to DA neurons. More recently a third glial player, oligodendroglia, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of PD. Oligodendroglia play a key role in myelination of the nervous system. Recent neuropathological studies suggested that the nigrostriatal dopamine neurons, which were considered classically as the primary target for neurodegeneration in PD, degenerate at later stages than other neurons with poor myelination. Therefore, the role of oligodendroglia, which also secrete neurotrophic factors, has entered the center of interest of neuroscientists." @default.
