The Cerebellar Dopaminergic System [PDF]
In the central nervous system (CNS), dopamine (DA) is involved in motor and cognitive functions. Although the cerebellum is not been considered an elective dopaminergic region, studies attributed to it a critical role in dopamine deficit-related ...

An approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. [PDF]
Here, we present an approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. In a group of healthy individuals, we searched for significant functional connectivity between dopamine-rich midbrain areas (substantia nigra;

Venoms as an adjunctive therapy for Parkinson’s disease: where are we now and where are we going?
Neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease (PD), are increasing in the aging population. Crucially, neurodegeneration of dopaminergic neurons in PD is associated with chronic inflammation and glial activation.

Dopaminergic therapy in aphasia [PDF]
The dopaminergic system is involved in a wide range of cognitive functions including motor control, reward, memory, attention, problem-solving and learning. This has stimulated interest in investigating the potential of dopaminergic drugs as cognitive enhancers in aphasic patients.To discuss the evidence for the use of dopaminergic agents in patients ...
