In the sporadic PD model, α-synuclein preformed fibrils (α-syn PFFs)-injected mice, we found an increase in PARIS, SNO-PARIS, and insoluble sequestration of PGC-1α in substantia nigra (SN), resulting in the reduction of mitochondrial DNA copy number and ATP concentration that were restored by N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor. This evidence concerns the gene NOS1 and Parkinson disease.
