BackgroundMultiple system atrophy (MSA) and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients develop respiratory and cardiovascular disturbances including obstructive sleep apnea, orthostatic hypotension, and nocturnal stridor. We hypothesized that, associated with these respiratory and cardiovascular disturbances, hypoxic events may occur in MSA and PD brains that may play a role in disease progression. The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of hypoxia in nonneurological controls and PD and MSA patients.MethodsMolecular levels of hypoxia markers were measured in postmortem brain tissue from controls and PD and MSA cases.ResultsMSA brain showed signs of chronic hypoxia characterized by the significant accumulation of the hypoxic marker HIF2α as compared to PD patients and controls. We detected no differences between MSA subtypes. Signs of hypoxia were also observed in PD patients with a clinical presentation similar to the MSA cases.ConclusionsThe results obtained from this study suggest a new alternative pathway associated with α-synucleinopathies that may contribute to the pathogenesis of these disorders. © 2020 The Authors.
