Dopamine and dopamine-quinones toxicity in Parkinson's disease: cellular models revealing a possible role for superoxide dismutases [PDF]
Parkinson’s disease is a widespread neurodegenerative disorder that affect 2% of the population above the age of 60. The hallmark of the pathology is the preferential degeneration of the dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta of the ...

Tetrahydrocannabinol and Dopamine D1 Receptor [PDF]
Dopamine is a hormone that is released by the adrenal gland and influences motor control and motivation. Dopamine is known to have 5 receptors which are D1, D2, D3, D4 and D5, which are further categorized into 2 families: D1 family and D2 family. The D1

Relationship Between Neurologic Symptoms and Signs and FMR1 Genotype in Premutation Carriers
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Fragile X‐associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS) is the most severe late‐onset condition caused by a premutation in the FMR1 gene, characterized by expanded CGG triplet repeats of 55–200. Clinical presentations of FXTAS, including gait ataxia, kinetic tremor, cognitive decline, and rare Parkinsonism, are linked to ...

ABSTRACT Objective Isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal state for Lewy body disorders and exhibits biological heterogeneity that may influence clinical expression and progression. We examined clinical features in individuals with iRBD and biomarker‐defined synucleinopathy.

An investigation into the function of single-neuron activity in the mesoaccumbens dopamine system of the rat [PDF]
The mesoaccumbens dopamine system has been implicated in many basic psychological processes (e.g. "wanting" and "liking") and illnesses (e.g. addiction, depression, schizophrenia).

Mesolimbic dopamine transients in motivated behaviors: focus on maternal behavior
Phasic activity of the mesolimbic dopamine pathway – burst firing of dopamine neurons and the resulting dopamine release events at striatal targets – have been associated with a variety of motivational events, such as novelty, salient stimuli, social ...

Midbrain dopamine signals are widely thought to report reward prediction errors that drive learning in the basal ganglia. However, dopamine has also been implicated in various probabilistic computations, such as encoding uncertainty and controlling exploration.

ABSTRACT Objective Neurochemical levels measured by brain MR spectroscopy (MRS) have been proposed as endpoints for clinical trials in early‐stage spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) trials. We tested their trial‐readiness by quantifying neurochemicals in three affected brain regions in early‐stage cohorts of SCA2 and SCA3, examining their reproducibility in ...
