AMPA receptor blockade improves levodopa-induced dyskinesia in MPTP monkeys
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the contribution of amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole proprionic acid (AMPA) glutamate receptors to the pathogenesis of parkinsonian signs and levodopa-induced dyskinesias. BACKGROUND: Motor fluctuations and dyskinesias reflect,

COVID‐19 Amplifies Sex‐Specific Dopamine and Glial Responses in a Parkinson's Disease Mouse Model
Abstract Background Exposure to environmental agents, including viral infections, may increase Parkinson's disease (PD) susceptibility, especially in males, but the neurodegenerative risk extent of COVID‐19 remains uncertain. Objectives We investigated the plausible link between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection and

Apathy in Lewy Body Disorders: A Position Paper
Abstract Apathy is one of the most prevalent and disabling non‐motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), collectively referred to as Lewy body disorders (LBDs). It is associated with reduced quality of life, accelerated cognitive decline, increased caregiver burden, and poorer functional outcomes, yet remains ...

Decoding Sleep Architecture from Ambulatory Basal Ganglia Signals in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Sleep architecture and circadian rhythms are frequently disrupted in Parkinson's disease (PD). BrainSense‐enabled neurostimulators combined with wearable technology enable chronic assessment of nocturnal brain activity, with potential for future diagnostics and personalized treatments. Objectives To neurophysiologically characterize
