Abstract
Fluorescence imaging can provide valuable information on the expression, distribution, and activity of drug target proteins. Chemical probes are useful small-molecule tools for fluorescence imaging with high structural flexibility and biocompatibility. In this review, we briefly introduce two classes of fluorescent probes for the visualization of drug target proteins. Enzymatically activatable probes make use of the specific enzymatic transformations that generally produce a fluorogenic response upon reacting with target enzymes. Alternatively, specific imaging can be conferred with a ligand that drives the probes to target proteins, where the labeling relies on noncovalent binding, covalent inhibition, or traceless labeling by ligand-directed chemistry. Fluorescence imaging of drug target proteins is useful for studying their localization and interaction with drugs. Enzymatically activatable probes provide high-contrast imaging and a readout of enzyme activity. Targeted probes favor specific imaging of non-enzymatic proteins, and LD chemistry allows for traceless labeling.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) overexpression is prominent in inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Directly monitoring COX-2 activity within its native environment poses an exciting approach to account for and illuminate the effect of the local environments on protein activity. Herein, we report the development of CoxFluor, the first activity-based sensing approach for monitoring COX-2 within live cells with confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. CoxFluor strategically links a natural substrate with a dye precursor to engage both the cyclooxygenase and peroxidase activities of COX-2. This catalyzes the release of resorufin and the natural product, as supported by molecular dynamics and ensemble docking. CoxFluor enabled the detection of oxygen-dependent changes in COX-2 activity that are independent of protein expression within live macrophage cells.

Abstract
"Minimalist" small molecule tagging (MSMT) is a promising approach that easily converts bioactive compounds into affinity-based probes (AfBPs) for proteomic studies. In this work, seven bioactive compounds targeting diversified protein classes were installed with "minimalist" linkers through common reactions to generate the corresponding AfBPs. These probes were evaluated for cell-based protein profiling and target validation. Among them, the entinostat-derived probe EN and the camptothecin-derived probe CA were further utilized in cellular imaging and SILAC-based large-scale target identification. Our extensive studies suggest that the "minimalist" small molecule tagging approach could be expanded to different classes of bioactive compounds for modification into AfBPs as a dual functional tool for both proteomics and cellular imaging.

Abstract
Molecular probes activated by a single enzyme have been extensively used in bioimaging and disease diagnosis; however, imaging and identification in an accurate manner remains a challenge for such probes. Here, based on the specificity of enzyme recognition, we engineered a "double-locked" and enzyme-activated molecular probe (NML) for accurate bioimaging and hepatopathy differentiation. Triggered by the successive reactions with leucine aminopeptidase (LAP, first "key") and monoamine oxidase (MAO, second "key"), the emissive fluorophore (NF) was released. NML can be activated only in the presence of both LAP and MAO and can be silenced when either enzyme is inhibited. Benefiting from the "double-locked" strategy, NML showed higher accuracy for imaging of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) than the "single-locked" probe. With serum testing, NML showed significant differences in mouse models of both CCl4-induced liver cirrhosis and DILI. Significantly, NML can be applied to accurately distinguish serum samples from clinical patients with different hepatopathies. Our smart molecular probe may hold great potential for hepatopathy diagnosis and clinical transformation.

Abstract
: Accumulative evidence indicated that the pathologically accumulated metal ions (iron species and Mn3+) and abnormally up-regulated monoamine oxidase B (MAOB) activity induced oxidation of endogenous dopamine (DA) can lead to mitochondria impairment, lysosome dysfunction, proteasome inhibition, and selective DA neuron vulnerability, which is implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). The DA oxidation can generate deleterious reactive oxygen species (ROS) and highly reactive DA quinones (DAQ) to induce DA-related toxicity, which can be alleviated by DA oxidation suppressors, ROS scavengers, DAQ quenchers, and MAOB inhibitors. On the other hand, the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-Keap1 and Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) anti-oxidative and proliferative signaling pathways play roles in anti-oxidative cell defense and mitochondria biogenesis, which is implicated in DA neuron protections. Therefore, agents with capabilities to suppress DA-related toxicity including inhibition of DA oxidation, scavenge of ROS, detoxification of DAQ, inhibition of MAOB, and modulations of anti-oxidative signaling pathways can be protective to DA neurons. Accumulative evidence shows that tea or coffee consumptions and smoking are related to deceased PD prevalence with unknown mechanisms. In this study, we investigate the protective capabilities of tea polyphenols and other PD relevant agents to inhibit DA-related toxicity and protect against environmental or genetic factors induced DA neuron degeneration in vitro and in vivo. We find that tea polyphenols can significantly suppress DA-related toxicity to protect DA neurons. The tea polyphenols can protect DA neurons via inhibition of DA oxidation, conjugation with DAQ, scavenge of ROS, inhibition of MAOB, and modulations of Nrf2-Keap1 and PGC-1α anti-oxidative signaling pathways. The tea polyphenols with more phenolic hydroxyl groups and ring structures have stronger protective functions. The protective capabilities of tea polyphenols is further strengthened by evidence that phenolic hydroxyl groups can directly conjugate with DAQ. However, GSH and other sulfhydyl groups containing agents have weaker capabilities to abrogate DA oxidation, detoxify ROS and DAQ and inhibit MAOB; whereas nicotine (NICO) and caffeine (CAF) can only modulate Nrf2-Keap1 and PGC-1α pathways to protect DA neurons weakly. The tea polyphenols are identified to protect against overexpression of mutant A30P α-synuclein (α-syn) induced DA neuron degeneration and PD-like symptoms in transgenic Drosophila. Based on achievements from current studies, the excellent and versatile protective capabilities of tea polyphenols are highlighted, which will contribute and benefit to future anti-PD therapy.

Abstract
High-fidelity tracking of specific enzyme activities is critical for the early diagnosis of diseases such as cancers. However, most of the available fluorescent probes are difficult to obtain in situ information because of tending to facile diffusion or inevitably suffering from aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect. In this work, we developed an elaborated near-infrared (NIR) aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active fluorescent probe, which is composed of a hydrophobic 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazole (HBT) moiety for extending into the NIR wavelength, and a hydrophilic β-galactosidase (β-gal) triggered unit for improving miscibility and guaranteeing its non-emission in aqueous media. This probe is virtually activated by β-gal, and then specific enzymatic turnover would liberate hydrophobic AIE luminogen (AIEgen) QM-HBT-OH. Simultaneously, brightness NIR fluorescent nanoaggregates are in situ generated as a result of the AIE-active process, making on-site the detection of endogenous β-gal activity in living cells. By virtue of the NIR AIE-active performance of enzyme-catalyzed nanoaggregates, QM-HBT-βgal is capable of affording a localizable fluorescence signal and long-term tracking of endogenous β-gal activity. All results demonstrate that the probe QM-HBT-βgal has potential to be a powerful molecular tool to evaluate the biological activity of β-gal, attaining high-fidelity information in preclinical applications.

Abstract
The mitochondrion is one of the most important organelles in the eukaryotic cell. Characterization of the mitochondrial proteome is a prerequisite for understanding its cellular functions at the molecular level. Here we report a proteomics method based on mitochondrion-targeting groups and click chemistry. In our strategy, three different mitochondrion-targeting moieties were each augmented with a clickable handle and a cysteine-reactive group. Fluorescence-based bioimaging and fractionation experiments clearly showed that most signals arising from the labels were localized in the mitochondria of cells, as a result of covalent attachment between probe and target proteins. The three probes had distinct profiling characteristics. Furthermore, we successfully identified more than two hundred mitochondrial proteins. The results showed that different mitochondrion-targeting groups targeted distinct proteins with partial overlap. Most of the labeled proteins were localized in the mitochondrial matrix and inner mitochondrial membrane. Our results provide a tool for chemoproteomic analysis of mitochondrion-related proteins.

Abstract
Mitochondria are key organelles in mammalian cells whose dysfunction is linked to various diseases. Drugs targeting mitochondrial proteins provide a highly promising strategy for potential therapeutics. Methods for the delivery of small-molecule drugs to the mitochondria are available, but these are not suitable for macromolecules, such as proteins. Herein, we report the delivery of native proteins and antibodies to the mitochondria using biodegradable silica nanoparticles (BS-NPs). The modification of the nanoparticle surface with triphenylphosphonium (TPP) and cell-penetrating poly(disulfide)s (CPD) facilitated their rapid intracellular uptake with minimal endolysosomal trapping, providing sufficient time for effective mitochondrial localization followed by glutathione-triggered biodegradation and of native, functional proteins into the mitochondria.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are the enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of monoamines, such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin, which serve as key neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS). MAOs play important roles in maintaining the homeostasis of monoamines, and the aberrant expression or activation of MAOs underlies the pathogenesis of monoamine neurotransmitter disorders, including neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases. Clearly, detecting and inhibiting the activities of MAOs is of great value for the diagnosis and therapeutics of these diseases. Accordingly, many specific detection probes and inhibitors have been developed and substantially contributed to basic and clinical studies of these diseases. In this review, progress in the detecting and inhibiting of MAOs and their applications in mechanism exploration and treatment of neurotransmitter-related disorders is summarized. Notably, how the detection probes and inhibitors of MAOs were developed has been specifically addressed. It is hoped that this review will benefit the design of more effective and sensitive probes and inhibitors for MAOs, and eventually the treatment of monoamine neurotransmitter disorders.

Abstract
Investigating the change in expression level of mercapto biomolecules (GSH/Cys/Hcy) necessitates a rapid detection method for a series of physiological and pathological processes. Herein, we present a ligand-displacement-based two-photon fluorogenic probe based on an Fe(iii) complex, TPFeS, which is a GSH/Cys/Hcy rapid detection fluorogenic probe for in vitro analysis and live cell/tissue/in vivo imaging. The "in situ" probe is non-fluorescent and was prepared from a 1 : 2 ratio of Fe(iii) and TPS, a novel two-photon (TP) fluorophore with excellent one-photon (OP) and TP properties under physiological conditions, as a fluorescent ligand. This probe shows a rapid and remarkable fluorescence restoration (OFF-ON) property due to the ligand-displacement reaction of mercapto biomolecules in a recyclable manner in vitro. A significant two-photon action cross-section, good selectivity for biothiols, low cytotoxicity, and insensitivity to pH over the biologically relevant pH range allowed the direct visualization of mercapto biomolecules at different levels between normal/drug-treated live cells, as well as in Drosophila brain tissues/zebrafish based on the use of two-photon fluorescence microscopy.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. The pathogenesis of the disease is associated with aggregated amyloid-β, hyperphosphorylated tau, a high level of metal ions, abnormal enzyme activities, and reactive astrocytes. This outlook gives an overview of fluorescent small molecules targeting AD biomarkers for ex vivo and in vivo imaging. These chemical imaging probes are categorized based on the potential biomarkers, and their pros and cons are discussed. Guidelines for designing new sensing strategies as well as the desirable properties to be pursued for AD fluorescence imaging are also provided.

Abstract
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction that converts serine to glycine. It plays an important role in one-carbon metabolism. Recently, SHMT has been shown to be associated with various diseases. Therefore, SHMT has attracted attention as a biomarker and drug target. However, the development of molecular probes responsive to SHMT has not yet been realized. This is because SHMT catalyzes an essential yet simple reaction; thus, the substrates that can be accepted into the active site of SHMT are limited. Here, we focus on the SHMT-catalyzed retro-aldol reaction rather than the canonical serine-glycine conversion and succeed in developing fluorescent and 19F NMR molecular probes. Taking advantage of the facile and direct detection of SHMT, the developed fluorescent probe is used in the high-throughput screening for human SHMT inhibitors, and two hit compounds are obtained.

Abstract
Zinc is a biocompatible element that exists as the second most abundant transition metal ion and an indispensable trace element in the human body. Compared to traditional metal-organic complexes systems, d10 metal ZnII complexes not only exhibit a large Stokes shift and good photon stability but also possess strong emission and low cytotoxicity with a relatively small molecular weight. The use of ZnII complexes has emerged in the last decade as a versatile and convenient tool for numerous biological applications, including bioimaging, molecular and protein recognition, as well as photodynamic therapy. Herein, we review recent developments involving ZnII metal complexes applied as specific subcellular compartment imaging probes and their correlated utilizations.

Abstract
A fast-response fluorogenic probe-compound D1-for monitoring hypochlorite (ClO- ), based on specific ClO- cleavage of a C=N bond and producing results observable to the naked eye, has been developed. The response of the probe to ClO- increases linearly, and the fluorescence intensity was heightened by a factor of about 25. D1 responses to ClO- , with high selectivity and sensitivity, were observable by naked eye within 10 s. D1 can not only detect levels of hypochlorite in vitro, such as in urine, but is also capable of monitoring hypochlorite content under extremely cold conditions, as low as -78 °C. Meanwhile, its good biocompatibility permitted the use of D1 to detect intracellular ClO- by confocal microscopy. Moreover, D1 was successfully applied to monitor exogenous and endogenous ClO- in zebrafish through fluorescence imaging.

Abstract
High-fidelity mapping of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques is critical for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease. However, in vivo probing of Aβ plaques by commercially available thioflavin derivatives (ThT or ThS) has proven to be extremely limited, as evident by the restriction of enrichment quenching effect, low signal-to-noise ( S/ N) ratio, and poor blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetrability. Herein, we demonstrate a rational design strategy of near-infrared (NIR) aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active probes for Aβ plaques, through introducing a lipophilic π-conjugated thiophene-bridge for extension to NIR wavelength range with enhancement of BBB penetrability, and tuning the substituted position of the sulfonate group for guaranteeing specific hydrophilicity to maintain the fluorescence- off state before binding to Aβ deposition. Probe QM-FN-SO3 has settled well the AIE dilemma between the lipophilic requirement for longer emission and aggregation behavior from water to protein fibrillogenesis, thus making a breakthrough in high-fidelity feedback on in vivo detection of Aβ plaques with remarkable binding affinity, and serving as an efficient alternative to the commercial probe ThT or ThS.

Development of fluorescent probes for on-site sensing and long-term tracking of specific biomarkers is particularly desirable for the early detection of diseases. However, available small-molecule probes tend to facilely diffuse across the cell membrane or remain at the activation site but always suffer from the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect. Here we report an enzyme-activatable aggregation-induced emission (AIE) probe QM-βgal, which is composed of a hydrophilic β-galactosidase (β-gal)-triggered galactose moiety and a hydrophobic AIE-active fluorophore QM-OH. The probe is virtually non-emissive in aqueous media, but when activated by β-gal, specific enzymatic turnover would liberate hydrophobic AIE luminogen (AIEgen) QM-OH, and then highly fluorescent nanoaggregates are in situ generated as a result of the AIE process, allowing for on-site sensing of endogenous β-gal activity in living cells. Notably, taking advantage of the improved intracellular retention of nanoaggregates, we further exemplify QM-βgal for long-term (∼12 h) visualization of β-gal-overexpressing ovarian cancer cells with high fidelity, which is essential for biomedicine and diagnostics. Thus, this enzyme-activatable AIE probe not only is a potent tool for elucidating the roles of β-gal in biological systems, but also offers an enzyme-regulated liberation strategy to exploit multifunctional probes for preclinical applications.

Abstract
Enzymes play critical roles in the physiological and pathological processes of living systems. To provide detailed pictures of enzyme activity at the molecular and cellular levels, interdisciplinary studies of chemistry and biology have led to the emergence of many smart fluorescent probes, which emit fluorescence or show a shifted signal only upon interaction with their targets. With distinct advantage of a higher signal-to-noise ratio than traditional ‘always on’ probes, smart fluorescent probes enable sensitive detection of enzymes with clinical significance. In this review, we summarize the design strategies and selected applications of smart fluorescent probes for in situ imaging of enzyme activity. Current challenges and future developments in this field are also discussed.

Abstract
A novel multifunctional probe, L, based on triphenylamine o-hydroxyl Schiff base was constructed for the sequential detection of Zn2+/P2O74-. Interestingly, probe L also showed two-photon fluorescent "off-on" response to Zn2+ along with a large effective two-photon absorption cross-section value of 240 GM at 720 nm, a low cytotoxic and a moderate photostability, which made L a good candidate for two-photon fluorescence microscopy imaging and monitoring the fluctuation of exogenous Zn2+.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidase A and B (MAO-A and B) are mitochondrial outer membrane enzymes that are implicated in a number of human diseases, and the pharmacological inhibition of these enzymes is a promising therapeutic strategy to alleviate disease symptoms. It has been suggested that optimal levels of enzymatic activity occur in the membrane-associated state, although details of the membrane association process remain to be understood. Herein, we have developed a supported lipid bilayer platform to study MAO-A and B binding and evaluate the effects of known pharmacological inhibitors on the membrane association process. By utilizing the quartz crystal microbalance-dissipation (QCM-D) technique, it was determined that both MAOs exhibit tight binding to negatively and positively charged bilayers with distinct concentration-dependent binding profiles while only transiently binding to neutral bilayers. Importantly, in the presence of known inhibitors, the MAOs showed increased binding to negatively charged bilayers, although there was no effect of inhibitor treatment on binding to positively charged bilayers. Taken together, our findings establish that the membrane association of MAOs is highly dependent on membrane surface charge, and we outline an experimental platform to support the in vitro reconstitution of monoamine oxidases on synthetic membranes, including the evaluation of pharmacological drug candidates.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the role of transglutaminase 2 (TG2) expressed in mast cells in substantia nigra (SN) in Parkinson's disease (PD) model or human PD patients. C57BL/6 mice received 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) by ip injection to induce PD. Bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) were adoptively transferred to TG2 knockout (KO or TG2-/-) mice by iv injection 1 day before MPTP injection or stimulated by 1 methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MMP+). KO-MPTP mice showed reduced expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT) and loss of TH+ DA neurons, and expression of markers (c-kit, tryptase, FcεRI), mediators' release (histamine, leukotrienes, cytokines), and TG2 related to mast cells, and co-localization of DA neuronal cells and mast cells in SN tissues or release of mediators and TG2 activity in SN tissues and sera versus those in WT (wild type)-MPTP or BM + KO-MPTP mice. KO-MPTP mice reversed the alterations of behavior. KO-BMMCs-transferred KO-MPTP (BM + KO-MPTP) mice had restoration of all the responses versus the KO-MPTP mice. MPP+-stimulated BMMCs had increased mediators' release, which were inhibited by TG2 inhibitor (R2 peptide). All the mediators and TG2 activity were also increased in the sera of human PD patients. The data suggest that TG2 expressed in mast cells recruited into SN tissues might contribute to neuroinflammation, which is known as one of the important features in pathogenesis of PD, via up-regulating the release of various mediators.

Abstract
Fluorogenic probes, small-molecule sensors that unmask brilliant fluorescence upon exposure to specific stimuli, are powerful tools for chemical biology. Those probes that respond to enzymatic catalysis illuminate the complex dynamics of biological processes at a level of spatiotemporal detail and sensitivity unmatched by other techniques. Here, we review recent advances in enzyme-activated fluorogenic probes for biological imaging. We organize our survey by enzyme classification, with emphasis on fluorophore masking strategies, modes of enzymatic activation, and the breadth of current and future applications. Key challenges such as probe selectivity and spectroscopic requirements are described alongside therapeutic, diagnostic, and theranostic opportunities.

Abstract
We designed a water-soluble guanidinium-modified calix[5]arene to target lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), an ideal biomarker for early diagnosis of ovarian and other gynecologic cancers, achieving binding on the nanomolar level. An indicator displacement assay, coupled with differential sensing, enabled ultrasensitive and specific detection of LPA. Moreover, we show that using a calibration line, the LPA concentration in untreated serum can be quantified in the biologically relevant low μM range with a detection limit of 1.7 μM. The reported approach is feasible for diagnosing ovarian and other gynecologic cancers, particularly at their early stages.

Abstract
In this study, a novel two-photon photothermal therapy (TP-PTT) agent based on an organic-metal microhybrid with surface Plasmon resonance (SPR) enhanced two-photon absorption (TPA) characteristic was designed and synthesized using a fluorescent cyano-carboxylic derivative 2-cyano-3-(9-ethyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl) -acrylic acid (abbreviated as CECZA) and silver nanoparticles through self-assembly process induced by the interfacial coordination interactions between the O/N atom of CECZA and Ag+ion at the surface of Ag nanoparticles. The coordination interactions caused electron transfer from the Ag nanoparticles to CECZA molecules at the excited state, resulting in a decreased fluorescence quantum yield. The interfacial coordination interactions also enhanced the nonlinear optical properties, including 13 times increase in the TPA cross-section (δ). The decreased fluorescence quantum yield and increased two photon absorption caused by the SPR effect led excellent two-photon photothermal conversion, which was beneficial for the TP-PTT effect on HeLa cancer cells.

Abstract
Small molecules possess large two-photon action cross sections (Φσ) are highly demanded for biological purpose. Herein, three novel terpyridine containing flexible amino diethylacetate organic small molecules (A1, A2 and A3) were rationally designed and their photophysical properties were investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The results revealed that the three chromophores possess large Φσ and remarkable Stokes' shift in high polar solvents, which are particularly benefit for further biological imaging application. One chromophore (A1) displayed an effective intracellular uptake against lung cancerous living cells A549. Colocalization studies suggested the internalized subcellular compartment was mitochondria. Consequently, chromophore A1 provides a promising platform to directly monitor mitochondria in living cells under two-photon confocal laser scanning microscopy.

Brain 2017; 140:2460-2474.

Abstract
See Jellinger (doi:10.1093/awx190) for a scientific commentary on this article. The enzyme monoamine oxidases (B and A subtypes, encoded by MAOB and MAOA, respectively) are drug targets in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Inhibitors of MAOB are used clinically in Parkinson's disease for symptomatic purposes whereas the potential disease-modifying effect of monoamine oxidase inhibitors is debated. As astroglial cells express high levels of MAOB, the enzyme has been proposed as a brain imaging marker of astrogliosis, a cellular process possibly involved in Parkinson's disease pathogenesis as elevation of MAOB in astrocytes might be harmful. Since brain monoamine oxidase status in Parkinson's disease is uncertain, our objective was to measure, by quantitative immunoblotting in autopsied brain homogenates, protein levels of both monoamine oxidases in three different degenerative parkinsonian disorders: Parkinson's disease (n = 11), multiple system atrophy (n = 11), and progressive supranuclear palsy (n = 16) and in matched controls (n = 16). We hypothesized that if MAOB is 'substantially' localized to astroglial cells, MAOB levels should be generally associated with standard astroglial protein measures (e.g. glial fibrillary acidic protein). MAOB levels were increased in degenerating putamen (+83%) and substantia nigra (+10%, non-significant) in multiple system atrophy; in caudate (+26%), putamen (+27%), frontal cortex (+31%) and substantia nigra (+23%) of progressive supranuclear palsy; and in frontal cortex (+33%), but not in substantia nigra of Parkinson's disease, a region we previously reported no increase in astrocyte protein markers. Although the magnitude of MAOB increase was less than those of standard astrocytic markers, significant positive correlations were observed amongst the astrocyte proteins and MAOB. Despite suggestions that MAOA (versus MAOB) is primarily responsible for metabolism of dopamine in dopamine neurons, there was no loss of the enzyme in the parkinsonian substantia nigra; instead, increased nigral levels of a MAOA fragment and 'turnover' of the enzyme were observed in the conditions. Our findings provide support that MAOB might serve as a biochemical imaging marker, albeit not entirely specific, for astrocyte activation in human brain. The observation that MAOB protein concentration is generally increased in degenerating brain areas in multiple system atrophy (especially putamen) and in progressive supranuclear palsy, but not in the nigra in Parkinson's disease, also distinguishes astrocyte behaviour in Parkinson's disease from that in the two 'Parkinson-plus' conditions. The question remains whether suppression of either MAOB in astrocytes or MAOA in dopamine neurons might influence progression of the parkinsonian disorders.
