Evaluation of the Association Between Serum Levels of Testosterone and Prolactin With 6- Hydroxydopamine- Induced Parkinsonism in Male Rats

Basic and Clinical Neuroscience, 2021
Introduction: Parkinson’s Disease (PD) associates with changes in sex hormones; however, it remains unknown whether this is either a cause for or a result of the disease.

Early reduced dopaminergic tone mediated by D3 receptor and dopamine transporter in absence epileptogenesis [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2019, 60 (10), pp.2128-2140
Abstract Objective In Genetic Absence Epilepsy Rats From Strasbourg ( GAERS s), epileptogenesis takes place during brain maturation and correlates with increased mRNA expression of D3 dopamine receptors (D3R). Whether these alterations are the consequence of seizure repetition or contribute to the development of epilepsy remains to be clarified.

Patient Selection in Deep Brain Stimulation: A Role for Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation to Enhance the Levodopa Challenge?

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dopaminergic medication and deep brain stimulation (DBS) improve motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), but levodopa response alone may not predict DBS outcomes. We retrospectively analyzed 19 PD patients undergoing levodopa challenges with and without prior transcranial direct current stimulation targeting a defined PD response network ...

Freezing of Gait as a Complication of Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation in DYT- KMT2B Patients with Evidence of Striatonigral Degeneration [PDF]

Mov Disord Clin Pract. 2022 Aug 9;9(7):992-996
Background: Mutations in KMT2B are a recognized cause of early-onset complex dystonia, with deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the internal globus pallidus (GPi-DBS) being an effective treatment. However, gait impairment, particularly freezing of gait (FOG), remains a significant challenge in DYT-KMT2B patients post-DBS.

Dopaminergic dynamics underlying sex-specific cocaine reward

Nature Communications, 2017
Although both males and females become addicted to cocaine, females transition to addiction faster and experience greater difficulties remaining abstinent.

Serotonergic and Dopaminergic Function in Neuropsychiatrically Asymptomatic People With HIV on Antiretroviral Therapy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective People with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART) still experience neurocognitive dysfunction and accelerated brain volume loss. To assess whether the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems are affected, we used [11C]DASB positron emission tomography (PET) to assess presynaptic serotonergic function and [18F]FDOPA PET to measure ...

Coffee Consumption Is Associated With Later Age‐at‐Onset of Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Observation studies suggest that coffee consumption may lower the risk and delay the age‐at‐onset (AAO) of Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of this study was to explore the causal relationship and genetic association between coffee consumption and the AAO, risk, and progression of PD. Using Mendelian randomization, we identified a significant

miR-425 deficiency promotes necroptosis and dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease

Cell Death and Disease, 2019
A major hallmark of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, and the causative mechanism is thought to be the activation of programmed neuronal death.

Fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations associated with μ-opioid and dopamine receptor distributions in the central nervous system after high-intensity exercise bouts

Frontiers in Neuroimaging
IntroductionDopaminergic, opiod and endocannabinoid neurotransmission are thought to play an important role in the neurobiology of acute exercise and, in particular, in mediating positive affective responses and reward processes.
