In vivo evidence for a differential contribution of striatal and nigral D1 and D2 receptors to l-DOPA induced dyskinesia and the accompanying surge of nigral amino acid levels

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
Evidence for an involvement of striatal D1 receptors in levodopa-induced dyskinesia has been presented whereas the contribution of striatal D2 receptors remains controversial.

Potential protective role of ACE-inhibitors and AT1 receptor blockers against levodopa-induced dyskinesias: a retrospective case-control study

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2021
Growing evidence has highlighted that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitors (ACEi)/AT1 receptor blockers (ARBs) may influence the complex interplay between dopamine and the renin-angiotensin system in the nigrostriatal pathway, thus affecting ...

Cognitive Outcome After Deep Brain Stimulation for Refractory Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder: A Systematic Review

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Introduction Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for refractory obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). Neuropsychological assessment contributes to DBS treatment in several ways: it monitors the cognitive safety of the treatment, identifies beneficial or detrimental cognitive side effects and it could aid to explain ...

Monoamine oxidase B rs1799836 G allele polymorphism is a risk factor for early development of levodopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease

open access: yeseNeurologicalSci, 2020
Background: Dopamine replacement therapy is an established treatment for motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease, but its long-term use is often limited by the eventual development of motor complications, including levodopa-induced dyskinesia.

Risk factors and predictors of levodopa-induced dyskinesia among multiethnic Malaysians with Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Chronic pulsatile levodopa therapy for Parkinson's disease (PD) leads to the development of motor fluctuations and dyskinesia. We studied the prevalence and predictors of levodopa-induced dyskinesia among multiethnic Malaysian patients with PD.

Neuroanatomical and Microglial Alterations in the Striatum of Levodopa-Treated, Dyskinetic Hemi-Parkinsonian Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Dyskinesia associated with chronic levodopa treatment in Parkinson’s disease is associated with maladaptive striatal plasticity. The objective of this study was to examine whether macroscale structural changes, as captured by magnetic resonance imaging ...

Different Alterations of Agonist and Antagonist Binding to 5-HT Receptor in a Rat Model of Parkinson’s Disease and Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia: A MicroPET Study

open access: yesJournal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2021
Background: The gold-standard treatment for Parkinson’s disease is L-DOPA, which in the long term often leads to levodopa-induced dyskinesia. Serotonergic neurons are partially responsible for this, by converting L-DOPA into dopamine leading to its ...

Retrospective Multicenter Study on Outcome Measurement for Dyskinesia Improvement in Parkinson’s Disease Patients with Pallidal and Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), among which the therapeutic targets commonly used include the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and the globus pallidus internus (GPi).

White matter connectivity networks predict levodopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease

open access: yes, 2022
Background: Although levodopa-induced dyskinesia-relevant white matter change has been evaluated, it is uncertain whether these changes may reflect the underlying predisposing conditions leading to the development of levodopa-induced dyskinesia ...

Cortico-striatal gamma oscillations are modulated by dopamine D3 receptors in dyskinetic rats

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Long-term levodopa administration can lead to the development of levodopa-induced dyskinesia. Gamma oscillations are a widely recognized hallmark of abnormal neural electrical activity in levodopa-induced dyskinesia.
