Coupling of histamine H1 and adenosine A1 receptors to phospholipase C in DDT1MF-2 cells: synergistic interactions and regulation by cyclic AMP.

abstract：:LRRK2 mutation is the most common inherited, autosomal dominant cause of Parkinson's disease (PD) and has also been observed in sporadic cases. Most mutations result in increased LRRK2 kinase activity. LRRK2 is highly expressed in brain regions that receive dense, convergent innervation by dopaminergic and glutamaterg...
