Radiology Case ReportsBasal ganglia germinomas (BGGs) are rare lesions. Because of the atypical features of early-stage clinical symptoms and imaging characteristics, BGGs are easily misdiagnosed with non-tumorous conditions.

Basal ganglia calcification [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2013 A 65-year-old man presented to the emergency room after a fall, sustaining a head injury. A CT of the head showed diffuse, symmetric parenchymal calcifications involving the thalami globus palladi and caudate heads (figures 1 and 2). Detailed evaluation revealed a long-standing history of muscle cramps, involuntary choreiform movements and gradual ...

Neurotransmitters in the Basal Ganglia [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1984 ABSTRACTThe literature is reviewed on the afferents and efferents of the caudate/putamen, globus pallidus and substantia nigra, and on the neurotransmitters occurring in the various tracts. Emphasis is placed upon the diverse roles played by GABA and glutamate as transmitters in motor pathways and upon the probability that the substantia nigra pars ...

Neuropsychiatry of the basal ganglia [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2002 This review aims to relate recent findings describing the role and neural connectivity of the basal ganglia to the clinical neuropsychiatry of basal ganglia movement disorders and to the role of basal ganglia disturbances in "psychiatric"' states. Articles relating to the relevant topics were initially collected through MEDLINE and papers relating to ...

How ‘Basal' Are the Basal Ganglia? [PDF]
Brain, Behavior and Evolution, 2013 years ago [Erwin et al., 2011], did not merely have a substantial rostral brain, but specifically a telencephalon, an elaborate set of forebrain structures hitherto recognized only in vertebrates. The set of structures that Strausfeld and Hirth [2013a] identify as the arthropod homolog of the basal ganglia is the central complex, a group of median ...

The basal ganglia and apraxia [PDF]
Brain, 1996 Ever since Liepmann's original descriptions at the beginning of the century apraxia has usually been attributed to damage confined to the cerebral cortex and/or cortico-cortical connecting pathways. However, there have been suggestions that apraxia can be due to deep subcortical lesions, which raises the question as to whether damage to the basal ...

Neurobiology of Disease, 2016 Rodent models of l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) are essential to investigate pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment options. Ratings of abnormal involuntary movements (AIMs) are used to capture both qualitative and quantitative features of ...

Transcriptome analysis in a rat model of l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia
Neurobiology of Disease, 2004 We have examined the pattern of striatal messenger RNA expression of over 8000 genes in a rat model of levodopa (l-DOPA)-induced dyskinesia and Parkinson disease (PD).

Abstract Representation of Movement Parameters in Basal Ganglia Output. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)The basal ganglia output provides a scalable velocity/position signal across behavioral contexts, supporting the idea that these variables are represented in the brain as abstract entities rather than as fixed changes in joint angles or specific sets of body effectors.
