Reduction of seizures by transplantation of cortical GABAergic interneuron precursors into Kv1.1 mutant mice.

abstract：:Loss-of-function DJ-1 mutations can cause early-onset Parkinson's disease. The function of DJ-1 is unknown, but an acidic isoform accumulates after oxidative stress, leading to the suggestion that DJ-1 is protective under these conditions. We addressed whether this represents a posttranslational modification at cystei...
