This is a $499,286.59 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The grant is focused on elucidating the relationship between LRRK2 kinase activity, oxidative stress, and Parkinson's disease pathogenesis. Specifically, the research aims to: 1) examine the oxidative activation of LRRK2 kinase, 2) investigate the translocation of LRRK2 to mitochondria under mitochondrial stress conditions, and 3) elucidate the role of LRRK2 kinase activity in driving oxidative stress and its downstream consequences. The project is being conducted by the University of Pittsburgh and is expected to run from August 2024 through July 2028. The findings from this research are expected to provide new insights into the underlying mechanisms of Parkinson's disease and inform the development of potential therapeutic strategies.
