Unraveling the intersection of aging and Parkinson’s disease: a collaborative roadmap for advancing research models
摘要
Aging is the most significant risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD), yet its role remains underexplored. The International Network for Parkinson’s Disease Modelling and Aging (PD-AGE), funded by the Michael J. Fox Foundation, was established to address these challenges. Through collaborative efforts, the PD-AGE mouse-model working group developed a roadmap to prioritize mouse models, reach consensus on experimental approaches, and standardize protocols to investigate the intersection of aging and PD.
