Basal ganglia role in learning rewarded actions and executing previously learned choices: Healthy and diseased states [PDF]
The basal ganglia (BG) is a collection of nuclei located deep beneath the cerebral cortex that is involved in learning and selection of rewarded actions. Here, we analyzed BG mechanisms that enable these functions.

Neuronal entropy depends on the level of alertness in the parkinsonian globus pallidus in vivo [PDF]
A new working hypothesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) proposes to focus on the central role of entropy increase in the basal ganglia (BG) in movement disorders. The conditions necessary for entropy increase in vivo are, however, still not fully described.

Distinct Lysosomal Network Protein Profiles in Parkinsonian Syndrome Cerebrospinal Fluid. [PDF]
BackgroundClinical diagnosis of parkinsonian syndromes like Parkinson's disease (PD), corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is hampered by overlapping symptomatology and lack of diagnostic biomarkers, and definitive ...

Diagnostic Evaluation of 99mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in Parkinsonism [PDF]
Background Parkinsonism as a group of movement disorders, exhibit similar clinical presentation. Therefore, clinically differentiating these diseases is difficult. We investigated the diagnostic value of 99m Tc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in this setting.

Impaired perception of biological motion in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: We examined biological motion perception in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Biological motion perception is related to one’s own motor function and depends on the integrity of brain areas affected in PD, including posterior superior temporal sulcus.

Comparison of 6-[18F]FDOPA PET with Nigrosome 1 detection in patients with parkinsonism
Background The functional 6-[18F]FDOPA positron emission tomography (PET) can be a helpful tool in differentiating parkinsonism with dopaminergic deficiency from clinically similar differential diagnoses.
