Remote Magnetomechanical Neuromodulation Uncovers Therapeutic Mechanisms for Alleviating Parkinsonian Symptoms in Freely Moving Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetomechanical neuromodulation using magnetic nanodiscs enables remote activation of neurons. In a hemiparkinsonian mouse model, alternating magnetic fields actuate the nanodiscs to generate torque that opens mechanosensitive ion channels within the subthalamic nucleus, thereby modulating basal ganglia motor circuitry.

A phase I study to evaluate the effect of high-dose carbidopa on levodopa pharmacokinetics

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Levodopa is the gold standard treatment for Parkinson’s disease. However, a high unmet medical need exists for longer-lasting oral levodopa formulations to achieve sustained motor improvement with reduced risk of the effect wearing off.

Entacapone potentiates the long-duration response but does not normalize levodopa-induced molecular changes

Neurobiology of Disease, 2008
Coadministration of entacapone with levodopa attenuates motor complications in experimental models of Parkinson's disease. The mechanisms underlying entacapone effects are unknown. We investigated the effect of entacapone, on: long-duration response (LDR)

Effects of on Levodopa Pharmacokinetics

Journal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2021
Background: Infection with Helicobacter pylori seems overrepresented in Parkinson’s disease. Clinical observations suggest a suboptimal treatment effect of levodopa in Helicobacter positive patients. Objective: Describe and explain the connection between

The impact of motor symptoms on self-reported anxiety in Parkinson's disease [PDF]

, 2017
OBJECTIVE: Anxiety is commonly endorsed in Parkinson's disease (PD) and significantly affects quality of life. The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) is often used but contains items that overlap with common PD motor symptoms (e.g., “hands trembling”). Because

Fibroblast Transcriptomics in Molecular Diagnostics of a Comprehensive Dystonia Cohort

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Genomic sequencing leaves >50% of dystonia‐affected individuals without a diagnosis. Where DNA‐oriented approaches remain insufficient, integrating multiomics is essential to advance genome interpretation. Herein, we incorporated RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) data from 167 patients with dystonia across a range of ages and presentations. Methods We

Acting without being in control: Exploring volition in Parkinson's disease with impulsive compulsive behaviours. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Several aspects of volitional control of action may be relevant in the pathophysiology of impulsive-compulsive behaviours (ICB) in Parkinson's disease (PD).

The impact of sleep quality on cognitive functioning in Parkinson's disease [PDF]

, 2011
In healthy individuals and those with insomnia, poor sleep quality is associated with decrements in performance on tests of cognition, especially executive function. Sleep disturbances and cognitive deficits are both prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Clinical pharmacology and prescribing education: An updated medical school curriculum from the British Pharmacological Society

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Prescribing is a complex, essential skill that doctors must acquire to practice medicine safely and effectively. The British Pharmacological Society has historically provided a core curriculum to guide clinical pharmacology and prescribing education in UK medical schools.
