Autoimmune basal ganglia encephalitis associated with anti-recoverin antibodies: A case report
eNeurologicalSci, 2021 Autoimmune basal ganglia encephalitis causes neurological symptoms such as parkinsonism associated with basal ganglia lesions. Here, we report a case of autoimmune basal ganglia encephalitis without retinal lesions or malignancy harboring anti-recoverin ...

Receptors in the Basal Ganglia [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1987 ABSTRACT:The study of neurotransmitter receptors aids in the understanding of the normal anatomy, pharmacology, therapeutics and pathophysiology of disease processes involving the basal ganglia. Receptors may be studied in vitro by homogenate binding experiments, enzyme analysis or quantitative autoradiography and in vivo with positron emission ...

Dissociation of metabolic and hemodynamic levodopa responses in the 6-hydroxydopamine rat model
Neurobiology of Disease, 2016 Dissociation of vasomotor and metabolic responses to levodopa has been observed in human subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) studied with PET and in autoradiograms from 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) rat. In both species, acute levodopa administration was

PDZD8 is not the ‘functional ortholog’ of Mmm1, it is a paralog [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
F1000Research, 2018 Authors of a recent paper demonstrate that, like ERMES (ER-mitochondria encounter structure) in fungal cells, PDZD8 (PDZ domain containing 8) tethers mitochondria to the ER in mammalian cells.

Neuroimaging of Basal Ganglia in Neurometabolic Diseases in Children
Brain Sciences, 2020 Diseases primarily affecting the basal ganglia in children result in characteristic disturbances of movement and muscle tone. Both experimental and clinical evidence indicates that the basal ganglia also play a role in higher mental states.

Mapping of rMSPRT computations to the cortico-basal-ganglia-thalamo-cortical loops.
, 2018 (a) Mapping of the negative logarithm of rMSPRT components from Fig 2. Sensory cortex (e.g. MT) produces fresh evidence for the decision, delivered to sensorimotor cortex in C parallel channels (e.g. MT spike trains). Sensorimotor cortex (e.g. LIP or FEF)

Cerebral activations related to ballistic, stepwise interrupted and gradually modulated movements in parkinson patients [PDF]
, 2012 Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experience impaired initiation and inhibition of movements such as difficulty to start/stop walking. At single-joint level this is accompanied by reduced inhibition of antagonist muscle activity.

The Basal Ganglia in Action [PDF]
The Neuroscientist, 2016 The basal ganglia (BG) are the major subcortical nuclei in the brain. Disorders implicating the BG are characterized by diverse symptoms, but it remains unclear what these symptoms have in common or how they can be explained by changes in the BG circuits.

The motor, cognitive, affective and autonomic functions of the basal ganglia
, 2018 The basal ganglia are involved in several processes, ranging from motor to cognitive ones. This chapter briefly discusses the role of the basal ganglia in motor (including reaching, handwriting, precision grip, gait, saccade generation, and speech ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
