Parkinson's disease (PD) involves alpha-synuclein accumulation according to Braak's pattern, with diverse clinical progressions that complicate diagnosis and treatment. We aimed to correlate Braak's pattern with rapid progressive PD to identify blood-based biomarkers and therapeutic targets exploiting brown algae-derived bioactives for potential treatment. We implemented a systematic workflow of transcriptomic profiling, co-expression networks, cluster profiling, transcriptional regulator identification, molecular docking, quantum calculations, and dynamic simulations.

We aimed to establish the crucial cytosolic protein involved in organelle connectivity between mitochondria and the endopalmic reticulum (ER) through a computational approach by constructing an organelle protein network to extract functional clusters presenting the crucial PD protein connecting organelles. Then, we assessed the influence of anti-parkinsonism drugs ( = 35) on the crucial protein through molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulation and further validated its gene expression in PD participants under, istradefylline ( = 25) and amantadine ( = 25) treatment.

However, its association with the clinical and cardiovascular function in coronary artery disease is largely unknown. The study aimed to profile the gene expression of - in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and to evaluate their influence on hematological, biochemical, and two-dimensional echocardiographic indices in CAD.
