Abstract
Neuromelanin (NM) is a dark pigment accumulating with age in human substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) dopamine (DA) neurons, conferring the dark look that inspired nigral area’s name. Despite NM has long been associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD), as melanized neurons favorably degenerate during disease development, NM functions within SNpc DA neurons are still mostly elusive. Here, by exploiting an NM-producing rat model generated by viral vector-induced expression of human Tyrosinase (hTyr), we inspected NM impact on nigral DA neurons’ survival and activity, on mitochondrial functionality of SNpc, and behaviors resembling non-motor and motor PD symptoms.
Our data reveal sex dimorphism in NM effects on nigrostriatal dopamine circuit, with sex-biased alterations in neuronal firing activity and underlying intrinsic currents, nigral mitochondrial functions, and non-motor PD symptoms (anxiety). In conclusion, this study discloses unrealized NM effects within nigral DA neurons, advancing our comprehension of sex-specific features shaping sex-biased vulnerability to PD.
