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 ...

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 ...

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]
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.

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 ...

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 ...

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
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
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.
