against 6-OHDA-induced neurodegeneration in parkinsonian rats. Robust and stable expression of the hMANF gene seems not to have overt side effects. Activation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway and inhibition of the ER stress may constitute mechanisms underlying MANF neuroprotection for DA cells against 6-OHDA-induced toxicity. Our study supports the development of clinical trials on
MANF-based gene therapy for PD"
