AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, implanted dopamine neurons have a low survival rate after surgery, resulting in unstable therapeutic effects and may trigger an inflammatory response to the host.

Method used

The survival rate of dopamine neurons in the midbrain is increased by inhibiting p53-mediated apoptosis. Specific methods include the use of TNFα inhibitors, NFκB inhibitors or p53 inhibitors to inhibit apoptotic signaling pathways.

Benefits of technology

It significantly improves the survival rate of dopamine neurons in the midbrain, reduces apoptosis, enhances the stability and effectiveness of treatment, and reduces the inflammatory response to the host.

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method for improving in vivo survival of midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons (e.g., in vitro differentiated mDA neurons) by suppressing p53-mediated apoptosis of the mDA neurons. The present disclosure further provides a method for treating a subject (e.g., a subject suffering from neurodegeneration and / or a neurodegenerative disease of midbrain dopamine neurons), the method comprising administering one or more mDA to the subject, whereby p53-mediated apoptosis of the one or more mDA neurons is suppressed.
