Optimized AAV capsids for basal ganglia diseases show robust potency and distribution [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Huntington’s disease and other disorders of the basal ganglia create challenges for biomolecule-based medicines given the poor accessibility of these deep brain structures following intracerebral or intravascular delivery.

The cryptic gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuronal system of human basal ganglia

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Human reproduction is controlled by ~2000 hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons. Here, we report the discovery and characterization of additional ~150,000–200,000 GnRH-synthesizing cells in the human basal ganglia and basal forebrain.

Extrastriatal dopaminergic circuits of the basal ganglia

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of chorea

open access: yesNeurology International, 2018
Chorea is thought to be caused by deactivation of the indirect pathway in the basal ganglia circuit. However, few imaging studies have evaluated the basal ganglia circuit in actual patients with chorea.

Jules Bernard Luys: from a description of the subthalamic nucleus to hypnotism [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2020
The authors review the role of Jules Bernard Luys in the discovery of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) over 150 years ago. The relationships between the STN and movement disorders, particularly hemiballismus and Parkinson’s disease, are well known.

Immunological causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder: is it time for the concept of an “autoimmune OCD” subtype?

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2022
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a highly disabling mental illness that can be divided into frequent primary and rarer organic secondary forms. Its association with secondary autoimmune triggers was introduced through the discovery of Pediatric ...

Cerebellar and basal ganglia structural connections in humans: Effect of aging and relation with memory and learning

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionThe cerebellum and basal ganglia were initially considered anatomically distinct regions, each connected via thalamic relays which project to the same cerebral cortical targets, such as the motor cortex. In the last two decades, transneuronal
