Dopamine signaling negatively regulates striatal phosphorylation of Cdk5 at tyrosine 15 in mice.

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Striatal functions depend on the activity balance between the dopamine and glutamate neurotransmissions. Glutamate inputs activate cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), which inhibits postsynaptic dopamine signaling by phosphorylating DARPP-32 (dopamine- and

Primary skin fibroblasts as a model of Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Parkinson's disease is the second most frequent neurodegenerative disorder. While most cases occur sporadic mutations in a growing number of genes including Parkin (PARK2) and PINK1 (PARK6) have been associated with the disease.

ER Stress and Autophagic Perturbations Lead to Elevated Extracellular α-Synuclein in GBA-N370S Parkinson's iPSC-Derived Dopamine Neurons

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2016
Heterozygous mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) represent the strongest common genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disorder.

Aberrant functional connectivity within the basal ganglia of patients with Parkinson's disease

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2015
Resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) has been previously shown to be a promising tool for the assessment of early Parkinson's disease (PD). In order to assess whether changes within the basal ganglia network (BGN) are disease specific or relate to ...

Putaminal mosaic visualized by tyrosine hydroxylase immunohistochemistry in the human neostriatum.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016
Among the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits, the putamen plays a critical role in the ‘motor’ circuits that control voluntary movements and motor learning.

Predicting motor, cognitive & functional impairment in Parkinson's

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Objective We recently demonstrated that 998 features derived from a simple 7‐minute smartphone test could distinguish between controls, people with Parkinson's and people with idiopathic Rapid Eye Movement sleep behavior disorder, with mean sensitivity ...

Development of a highly sensitive immunohistochemical method to detect neurochemical molecules in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues from autopsied human brains

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a valuable method for identifying discrete neurochemical molecules by the interaction of target antigens with validated antibodies tagged with a visible label (e.g., peroxidase).

Stability of MDS-UPDRS Motor Subtypes Over Three Years in Early Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Various classifications have been proposed to subtype Parkinson's disease (PD) based on their motor phenotypes. However, the stability of these subtypes has not been properly evaluated.Objective: The goal of this study was to understand the ...

Impact of Neu-botulinumtoxinA on the Severity and Quality of Life of Cervical Dystonia Patients

open access: yesTremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2016
Background: Cervical dystonia (CD) is a debilitating neurological disorder that may gravely affect a patient’s quality of life (QoL). Botulinum toxin treatment has been approved as a first-line treatment for this condition.
