A constant metabolism and energy supply are crucial to all organs, particularly the brain. Age-dependent neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), are associated with alterations in cellular metabolism. These changes have been recognized as a novel hot topic that may provide new insights to help identify risk in the pre-symptomatic phase of the disease, understand disease pathogenesis, track disease progression, and determine critical endpoints. Nuclear receptor-related factor 1 (NURR1), an orphan member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors, is a major risk factor in the pathogenesis of PD, and changes in NURR1 expression can have a detrimental effect on cellular metabolism. In this review, we discuss recent evidence that suggests a vital role of NURR1 in dopaminergic (DAergic) neuron development and the pathogenesis of PD. The association between NURR1 and cellular metabolic abnormalities and its implications for PD therapy have been further highlighted.

NURR1在帕金森病代谢异常中的作用

持续的新陈代谢和能量供应对所有器官，尤其是大脑至关重要。年龄依赖性神经退行性疾病，如帕金森病 (PD)，与细胞代谢的改变有关。这些变化已被公认为一个新的热门话题，可能会提供新的见解，以帮助识别疾病症状前阶段的风险、了解疾病发病机制、跟踪疾病进展并确定关键终点。核受体相关因子 1 (NURR1) 是转录因子核受体超家族的孤儿成员，是 PD 发病机制中的主要危险因素，NURR1 表达的变化可能对细胞代谢产生不利影响。在本次审查中，我们讨论了最近的证据表明 NURR1 在多巴胺能（DAergic）神经元发育和 PD 发病机制中的重要作用。进一步强调了 NURR1 与细胞代谢异常之间的关联及其对 PD 治疗的影响。
