We hypothesize that the machinery directly responsible for executing cell death is composed of a precisely calibrated array of BCL2 proteins. Paradoxically, these BCL2 proteins, required for proper development of the dopaminergic system, may also cause vulnerability of this system in the adult, as these BCL2 proteins have recently been linked to Parkinson's disease. In addition to the intriguing possibility of finding useful biomarkers for predicting later neurodegeneration, further investigation of these factors could open new paths for treating Parkinson's disease.
