Objectives: Canonical Wnt/βcatenin signaling chiefly regulates dopaminergic (DA) neurodevelopment,
hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. We have provided substantial evidence
that timely activation of endogenous Wnt/β-catenin signaling within and outside the
neurogenic niches promotes an intrinsic compensatory program leading to histopathological
and functional nigrostriatal DA neurorepair in the MPTP model of Parkinson's disease
(PD) (1-3). Here, we investigated the response of the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG)
where the disruption of the DA balance in the hippocampus inhibits neurogenesis in
and this may be crucial for the clinical neurological and cognitive deficits observed
in PD.
