Abstrakt: Parkinson disease represents a significant and growing burden on global healthcare systems, necessitating a deeper understanding of their underlying molecular mechanisms for the development of effective treatments. The AKT and ERK pathways play crucial roles in the disease, influencing multiple cellular pathways that support neuronal survival. Researchers have made notable progress in uncovering how these pathways are controlled by upstream kinases and how their downstream effects contribute to cell signalling. However, as we delve deeper into their intricacies, we encounter increasing complexity, compounded by the convergence of multiple signalling pathways. Many of their targets overlap with those of other kinases, and they not only affect specific substrates but also influence entire signalling networks. This review explores the intricate interplay of the AKT/ERK pathways with several other signalling cascades, including oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress, calcium homeostasis, inflammation, and autophagy, in the context of Parkinson disease. We discuss how dysregulation of these pathways contributes to disease progression and neuronal dysfunction, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for intervention. By elucidating the complex network of interactions between the AKT/ERK pathways and other signalling cascades, this review aims to provide insights into the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease and describe the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
