It is neuroprotective in different models of neurological diseases, like cerebral ischemia and Huntington's disease. In the context of Parkinson's disease, it has recently been shown to restore DJ-1 function in an in vitro model of hereditary Parkinson's disease. Here, we demonstrate that BAG1 overexpression in SH-SY5Y cells reduces toxicity after transfection of disease-related alpha-synuclein mutants. Furthermore, it protects from rotenone-induced cell death in vitro and ameliorates neuronal demise in an in vivo 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6,-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model for Parkinson's disease after adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated BAG1 gene transfer into the substantia nigra in mice but showed no protective effects in an in vitro 6-hydroxidopamine model. In conclusion, we present BAG1 as a potential therapeutic target in Parkinson's disease."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s12031-014-0396-2"],["dc.identifier.gro","3141952"],["dc.identifier.isi","000349289600004"],["dc.identifier.pmid","25106480"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/2902"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","1559-1166"],["dc.relation.issn","0895-8696"],["dc.subject","BAG1; Parkinson’s disease; α-Synuclein; Rotenone; 6-Hydroxydopamine; MPTP"],["dc.title","BAG1 is Neuroprotective in In Vivo and In Vitro Models of Parkinson's Disease"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
