Service-based survey of dystonia in Munich [PDF]

, 2002
We performed a service-based epidemiological study of dystonia in Munich, Germany. Due to favourable referral and treatment patterns in the Munich area, we could provide confident data from dystonia patients seeking botulinum toxin treatment.

Decreased N-TAF1 expression in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism patient-specific neural stem cells

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder involving a progressive loss of striatal medium spiny neurons. The mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration are not known, in part because there have been few cellular models ...

Myoclonus-dystonia : distinctive motor and non-motor phenotype from other dystonia syndromes [PDF]

, 2019
Background: myoclonus-dystonia (M-D) due to a pathogenic variant of SGCE is an autosomal dominant inherited movement disorder. Apart from motor symptoms, psychiatric disorders are highly prevalent in patients with MD.

Development of a highly sensitive immunohistochemical method to detect neurochemical molecules in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues from autopsied human brains

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a valuable method for identifying discrete neurochemical molecules by the interaction of target antigens with validated antibodies tagged with a visible label (e.g., peroxidase).

Anatomical categorization of isolated non-focal dystonia: novel and existing patterns using a data-driven approach

Dystonia, 2023
According to expert consensus, dystonia can be classified as focal, segmental, multifocal, and generalized, based on the affected body distribution. To provide an empirical and data-driven approach to categorizing these distributions, we used a data ...

Temporal discrimination: Mechanisms and relevance to adult-onset dystonia [PDF]

, 2017
Temporal discrimination is the ability to determine that two sequential sensory stimuli are separated in time. For any individual, the temporal discrimination threshold (TDT) is the minimum interval at which paired sequential stimuli are perceived as ...

Putaminal mosaic visualized by tyrosine hydroxylase immunohistochemistry in the human neostriatum.

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016
Among the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits, the putamen plays a critical role in the ‘motor’ circuits that control voluntary movements and motor learning.

Pain control due to botulinum toxin therapy in cervical dystonia relates to the sensorimotor integration process

Dystonia, 2023
Background: Botulinum toxin (BoNT) injections have been found to improve pain symptoms of isolated cervical dystonia (CD). In addition to muscle relaxation at the peripheral level, few studies suggest that BoNT has effects on the central brain ...

Long-Term Efficacy and Safety of Chronic Globus Pallidus Internus Stimulation in Different Types of Primary Dystonia [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) offers a very promising therapy for medically intractable dystonia. However, little is known about the long-term benefit and safety of this procedure. We therefore performed a

Plasticity and dystonia: a hypothesis shrouded in variability. [PDF]

, 2020
Studying plasticity mechanisms with Professor John Rothwell was a shared highlight of our careers. In this article, we discuss non-invasive brain stimulation techniques which aim to induce and quantify plasticity, the mechanisms and nature of their ...
