A diagram of the rostral midbrain. The area which degenerates in Parkinson's disease, called the substantia nigra pars compacta, is visualized as two dark brown bands in the lower half of the image.

Introduction

Cell-based therapies for Parkinson's disease include the the transplantation of cells into the brain of Parkinson's disease patients. The investigation of cell transplantation therapies followed the 1960's discovery that the dopamine precursor levodopa could significantly alleviate motor symptoms such as bradykinesia and rigidity. Thus cell transplantation has focused on various dopamine producing cells throughout the body, these include chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla, fetal ventral mesencephalic tissue, glomus cells of the carotid body and stem cells.[1]

Chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla

A diagram of the arterial supply to the head and neck. The common carotid artery can be seen bifurcating into the internal carotid artery and external carotid artery. The carotid body is found at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery and in the same general location as the carotid sinus.

Glomus cells of the carotid body

The carotid body is a group of chemoreceptor cells located at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery. It includes two populations of cells; glomus (type I) cells and sustentacular (type II) cells. Glomus cells are derived from the neural crest and secrete dopamine in response to hypoxemia (low level of oxygen in the blood).[2] Based on their ability to secrete dopamine and also glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)[3], these cells have been investigated as an intrastriatal autograft for patients with Parkinson's disease. [4][5] A clinical trial exploring this initially showed motor benefits, unfortunately these benefits disappeared after 6-12 months, in correlation with poor survival of the grafted cells.[6]

Retinal pigment epithelium

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a single layer of melanin containing cells located between the neural retina and the choroid. Retinal pigment epithelial cells synthesize dopamine and secrete the neurotrophic factors glial-cell derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF).[7]
