Relationship between L-DOPA-induced reduction in motor and exploratory activity and degree of DAT binding in the rat

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Purpose: The present study assessed the influence of L-DOPA administration on neostriatal dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT) binding in relation to motor and exploratory behaviors in the rat.Methods: Rats received injections of 5 mg/kg L-DOPA, 10 mg/kg L ...

Protective Effects of L-Dopa and Carbidopa Combined Treatments on Human Catecholaminergic Cells

, 2012
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders characterized by decreased levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) in the striatum of the brain, as a result of degeneration of DA neurons.

Diagnostic yield and copy number variants findings in 219 adult patients with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract In a clinical setting, exome sequencing (ES) with copy number variant (CNV) analysis is currently the most effective approach for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE). However, trio‐based ES is often not feasible in adults, its costs remain prohibitive in certain health care settings, and computational tools for CNV calling still

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Antibacterial Film Formation through Iron(III) Complexation and Oxidation-Induced Cross-Linking of OEG-DOPA

, 2019
Catechols are prone to oxidative polymerization as well as complex formation with metal ions. These two features of catechols have played an important role in the construction of functional films on various surfaces. For example, marine antifouling films

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Probiotic Spore Inspired Oral Drug Delivery System With Multiple‐Barriers‐Crossing Ability Modulates Gut‐Brain Axis for Parkinson's Disease Therapy

Exploration, EarlyView.
Inspired by the germination of probiotic spores, we utilize the excellent characteristics of spores to break through multiple barriers of oral brain‐targeted delivery. Besides the probiotics mediated gut‐brain communication, the spore coat proteins derived nanosystems with multiple‐barriers‐crossing ability alleviate neurodegeneration.

Guidelines for Immunomodulatory Assays of Food Bioactives on Drosophila melanogaster Model

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Guidelines are proposed for evaluating the immunomodulatory effects of food bioactives in Drosophila melanogaster, involving treatment with bioactives, pathogen preparation, infection routes, and immune response assessment. This model highlights the conserved mechanisms of cellular and humoral immunity for studying host‐microbe interactions.

Somatic cell reprogramming for Parkinson's disease treatment

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 59-73, Spring 2025.
The fundamental purpose of cell reprogramming to treat Parkinson's disease is to generate dopaminergic neurons (DAN) and do transplantation. There are two ways to accomplish this. One method is to induce cells into induced DA neurons (iDAN) directly or to induce cells into induced pluripotent stem cells and ultimately into iDAN in vitro. Another option
