Intracerebral administration of a modified antisense oligonucleotide targeting the dopamine system in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease

Here, we present an optimized protocol for generating a mouse model overexpressing human α-synuclein in dopamine (DA) neurons driven by an adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector and for the examination of the benefit of an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-based therapy on DA neurotransmission under Park...

Sumario:Here, we present an optimized protocol for generating a mouse model overexpressing human α-synuclein in dopamine (DA) neurons driven by an adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector and for the examination of the benefit of an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-based therapy on DA neurotransmission under Parkinson's disease (PD)-like conditions. We describe AAV injection, followed by implantation of an osmotic minipump for ASO delivery and a guide cannula for microdialysis to measure DA release. This protocol can be used to evaluate oligonucleotide-based therapies for PD. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Alarcón-Arís et al. (2020).
