Abstract
Vacuolar protein sorting 35 (VPS35), a critical component of the retromer complex, plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It is involved in protein transmembrane sorting, facilitating the transport from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and plasma membrane. Recent investigations have compellingly associated mutations in the VPS35 gene with neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. These genetic alterations are implicated in protein misfolding, disrupted autophagic processes, mitochondrial dysregulation, and synaptic impairment. Furthermore, VPS35 exerts a notable impact on neurogenesis by influencing neuronal functionality, protein conveyance, and synaptic performance. Dysregulation or mutation of VPS35 may escalate the progression of neurodegenerative conditions, underscoring its pivotal role in safeguarding neuronal integrity. This review comprehensively discusses the role of VPS35 and its functional impairments in NDs. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the impact of VPS35 on neurogenesis and further explore the intricate relationship between neurogenesis and NDs. These research advancements offer novel perspectives and valuable insights for identifying potential therapeutic targets in the treatment of NDs.
