Neuroimaging of Basal Ganglia in Neurometabolic Diseases in Children [PDF]
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.

Extrastriatal dopaminergic circuits of the basal ganglia [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010 The basal ganglia are comprised of the striatum, the external and internal segment of the globus pallidus (GPe and GPi, respectively), the subthalamic nucleus (STN), and the substantia nigra pars compacta and reticulata (SNc and SNr, respectively ...

Lesch–Nyhan disease and the basal ganglia
Brain Research Reviews, 2000 The purpose of this review is to summarize emerging evidence that the neurobehavioral features of Lesch-Nyhan disease (LND), a developmental disorder caused by congenital deficiency of the purine salvage enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT), may be attributable to dysfunction of the basal ganglia.

Physiology of the Basal Ganglia and Pathophysiology of Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1987 ABSTRACT:This paper reviews current concepts concerning the anatomical organization and functions of the basal ganglia focusing mainly on the role of the basal ganglia in control of movement. Results of several studies which have been carried out on patients with Parkinson's disease are also reviewed and discussed as examples of altered normal ...

Mitochondrial defects in basal ganglia diseases.
Current Opinion in Neurology, 1995 Mitochondrial DNA mutations are important causes of movement disorders and are often associated with basal ganglia degeneration. Leigh's disease and a form of generalized dystonia are caused by mitochondrial DNA mutations.

PSYCHIATRIC ASPECTS OF BASAL GANGLIA DISEASES [PDF]
Psychiatria Danubina, 2011 This review clarifies the fact that basal ganglia diseases are psychiatric as much as neurological diseases. It illustrates psychiatric aspects in Parkinson\u27s disease and other hereditary basal ganglia diseases such as Wilson\u27s disease, Huntington ...

Theory of mind in Parkinson's disease and related basal ganglia disorders: A systematic review [PDF]
Movement Disorders, 2009 Theory of mind (ToM), defined as the ability to infer other people's mental states, is a crucial prerequisite of human social interaction and a major topic of interest in the recent neuroscientific research. It has been proposed that ToM is mediated by a

Increased Basal Ganglia Modulatory Effective Connectivity Observed in Resting-State fMRI in Individuals With Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022 Alterations to interactions between networked brain regions underlie cognitive impairment in many neurodegenerative diseases, providing an important physiological link between brain structure and cognitive function.

Ketamine-induced oscillations in the motor circuit of the rat basal ganglia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Oscillatory activity can be widely recorded in the cortex and basal ganglia. This activity may play a role not only in the physiology of movement, perception and cognition, but also in the pathophysiology of psychiatric and neurological diseases like ...

Multiple Frequencies in the Basal Ganglia in Parkinson's Disease
Advances in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2015 In recent years, the authors have developed what appears to be a very successful phenomenological model for analyzing the role of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in alleviating the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. In this paper, we extend the scope of the model by using it to predict the generation of new frequencies from networks tuned to a specific ...
