Application and progress of transcranial substantial ultrasound in Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common nervous system disease, mainly manifested as motor retardation, resting tremor, etc. (1). The clinical features of early PD patients are not characteristic, and diagnosis is very difficult.

Single-cell transcriptomics captures features of human midbrain development and dopamine neuron diversity in brain organoids

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Three-dimensional brain organoids have emerged as a valuable model system for studies of human brain development and pathology. Here we establish a midbrain organoid culture system to study the developmental trajectory from pluripotent stem cells to ...

Nail in the midbrain [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology, 2009
A 31-year-old man who had been shot with a nail gun was unresponsive at presentation, with unequal, nonreactive pupils. The frontal sinus and right frontal pole were debrided …

An approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Here, we present an approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. In a group of healthy individuals, we searched for significant functional connectivity between dopamine-rich midbrain areas (substantia nigra;

Dissociation of task engagement and arousal effects in auditory cortex and midbrain

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Both generalized arousal and engagement in a specific task influence sensory neural processing. To isolate effects of these state variables in the auditory system, we recorded single-unit activity from primary auditory cortex (A1) and inferior colliculus

Midbrain dopaminergic innervation of the hippocampus is sufficient to modulate formation of aversive memories

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance The origin and mode of action of dopamine on hippocampus-dependent memory have been a matter of interest for many years. The latest research has pointed toward the locus coeruleus as the main source of hippocampal dopamine, while inputs from

Non-thalamic origin of zebrafish sensory nuclei implies convergent evolution of visual pathways in amniotes and teleosts

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Ascending visual projections similar to the mammalian thalamocortical pathway are found in a wide range of vertebrate species, but their homology is debated. To get better insights into their evolutionary origin, we examined the developmental origin of a

The VTA dopaminergic system as diagnostic and therapeutical target for Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) occur in nearly all patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Most frequently they appear since the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) stage preceding clinical AD, and have a prognostic importance. Unfortunately, these symptoms

Nox2 dependent redox-regulation of microglial response to amyloid-β stimulation and microgliosis in aging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Microglia express constitutively a Nox2 enzyme that is involved in neuroinflammation by the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Amyloid β (Aβ) plays a crucial role in Alzheimer’s disease.

The dopaminergic midbrain participates in human episodic memory formation: Evidence from genetic imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recent data from animal studies raise the possibility that dopaminergic neuromodulation promotes the encoding of novel stimuli. We investigated a possible role for the dopaminergic midbrain in human episodic memory by measuring how polymorphisms in ...
