Cortical tissue from 3-month-old presymptomatic mice showed significant proteomic overlap with both patient-derived PD cell lines and human brain proteomic datasets, particularly from the substantia nigra, underscoring the translational relevance of this model. Consistent with disease progression, immunofluorescence analyses of the cortex and substantia nigra from 14-month-old mice revealed significant dysregulation of multiple markers associated with neurodegeneration. Together, these findings demonstrate that impaired autophagy resulting from reduced Wdfy3 expression recapitulates key features of neurodegenerative disease at both early and later stages. By providing a platform to investigate presymptomatic pathogenic mechanisms, this model may inform the development and testing of future diagnostic and therapeutic strategies aimed at preserving neuronal health.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-026-43314-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,4]],"date-time":"2026-04-04T07:43:38Z","timestamp":1775288618000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Wdfy3-dependent autophagy impairment recapitulates presymptomatic neurodegenerative signatures in mice"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Aldo","family":"Vorkapich","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arshi","family":"Mustafa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amanda L.","family":"Flores-Torres","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Konstantinos S.","family":"Zarbalis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cecilia","family":"Giulivi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"43314_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"245","DOI":"10.1016\/j.abb.2007.03.034","volume":"462","author":"I Kim","year":"2007","unstructured":"Kim, I., Rodriguez-Enriquez, S. & Lemasters, J.
