2. Parkinson’s disease
• Neuro degenerative disease.
• It predominantly affects the dopamine
secreting neurons in particular the substantia
nigra.
• mitochondrial complex 1 dysfunction is said to
contributing to parkinsonism.

3. MITOCHONDRIA and its structure
IN MITOCHONDRIAL MATRIX
NADH passes through complex 1,electrons thus produced
creates a protein gradient and thereby, ATP by oxidative
phosphorylation
TCA CYCLE
Pyruvate converted to acetyl coA which are then converted to
NADH and FAD
GLYCOLYSIS
Releases 2 pyruvate

17. This research provided data that progressive loss of MC1 function in dopa neurons trigger progressive and levodopa responsive
parkinsonism which occurred only when somstodendric SNDA fell
Slow loss of MC1 function caused NDFSU2 deletion caused warberg shift but bioenergetic demands of SN can be met by OXPHOS which
was found to be declined by ageing.

18. A metabolomic analysis of the plasma was made from a mouse model of prodromal PD (p-PD). Increased levels
of isobutyrylcarnitine in p-PD mice show an abnormality in β-oxidation in mitochondria
Increased levels of pyrimidine nucleoside can be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Consistent with
these results, the immunoblot analysis showed a defect in mitochondrial complex I assembly in p-PD mice.

Oxidation of cardiolipin in the substantia nigra is enhanced by rotenone, an inhibitor of complex I, in a model of PD so ,inhibition
of cardiolipin oxidation allows a correct functioning of the mitochondria.
Adequate levels of cardiolipin are crucial for efficient electron transport between CoQ and complex, maintain normal
mitochondrial cristae structure and correct assembly of the electron chain supercomplexes
melatonin resulted in a significant reduction of oxidative stress markers. significant increases of catalase, complex I activity, and
respiratory control , prevents cardiolipin loss and oxidation which avoids mitochondrial membrane permeabilization induced by
reactive oxygen species and other factors

22. CONCLUSION
So on a final note we can conclude that complex 1 dysfunction undergoes oxidative damage
particularly in NDFSU2 and few subunits of N module lead to a progressive loss of function .
Warberg shift type of remodeling for decreasing energy requirements.In a metabolomic analysis of
predromic mice increased levels pyridine nucleoside levels found explaining defect in MC1.
It was also found that cardiolipin level disturbances also causes dysfunction in complex 1 activity there
by contributing to PD.Mutations in genes such as Tfam, LRRK2,PGC1alpha, and external factors such
as MPP ,rotenone also lead to functional dysfunction of Mitochondrial complex 1 causing disturbance
in energitics and increase in ROS that ultimately causing cell death
