CircSAMD4A participates in the apoptosis and autophagy of dopaminergic neurons via the miR‑29c‑3p‑mediated AMPK/mTOR pathway in Parkinson's disease.

ABSTRACT: Parkinson's disease (PD) can lead to movement injury and cognitive dysfunction. Although advances have been made in attenuating PD, the effect of inhibiting the development of PD remains disappointing. Therefore, the present study aimed at investigating the etiology of Parkinson's disease and developing an alternative therapeutic strategy for patients with PD. A PD mouse model was established using an intraperitoneal injection of 1‑methyl‑4‑phenyl‑1,2,3,6‑tetrahydropyridine hydrochloride (MPTP‑HCl; 30 mg/kg/day for 5 days), and a PD cellular model was established by treating SH‑SY5Y cells with different concentrations of 1‑methyl‑4‑phenylpyridinium (MPP+) for 24 h. The expression levels of circular RNA sterile α motif domain containing 4A (circSAMD4A) and microRNA (miR)‑29c‑3p in both midb
