Abstract:
The α-synuclein, the main component of Lewy bodies, is closely related to Parkinson's disease (PD) development. Mesenchymal stem cell transplantation has shown a remarkable prospect in PD treatment, and indirect regulation of abnormal α-synuclein-related microenvironment is a key part of its neuroprotective mechanism, but the specific mechanism is extremely complex and remains unclear. We briefly discuss the roles of mesenchymal stem cells in regulating the abnormal α-synuclein related microenvironment by enhancing α-synuclein autophagy, increasing hydrolysis of α-Syn aggregates, and inhibiting α-synuclein intercellular transmission, to help in mesenchymal stem cell transplantation for PD treatment.
