Engrailed Homeoprotein Protects Mesencephalic Dopaminergic Neurons from Oxidative Stress
Engrailed homeoproteins are expressed in adult dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. In Engrailed1 heterozygous mice, these neurons start dying at 6 weeks, are more sensitive to oxidative stress, and progressively develop traits similar to those observed following an acute and strong oxidati...
