A hallmark of Parkinson’s disease is the specific degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Interestingly, not all of these neurons are equally affected. Studies revealed that neurons located more ventrally within the substantia nigra pars compacta have a higher pre...

Pathways underlying selective neuronal vulnerability in Alzheimer's disease: contrasting the vulnerable locus coeruleus to the resilient substantia nigra
Identifying factors underlying selective neuronal vulnerability is crucial for understanding Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathophysiology. The Neuromodulatory Subcortical System (NSS) includes nuclei that exhibit early, but varied vulnerability to tau accumulation and neuronal loss. This varied vulnerab...

This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. The neurodegenerative disease known as ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is caused by the absence of the ATM (A-T mutated) protein. A long-standing mystery surrounding A-T is why cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) appear uniquely vulnerable to ATM-...

Intracellular accumulation of amyloid-ß is a marker of selective neuronal vulnerability in Alzheimer’s disease
ALS is a uniformly fatal neurodegenerative disease in which motor neurons in the spinal cord and brain stem are selectively lost. Individual motor - groups of motor neurons innervating single muscles - show widely varying degrees of disease resistance: in the final stages of ALS, nearly all voluntar...
