Differential involvement of NMDA, AMPA/kainate, and dopamine receptors in the nucleus accumbens core in the acquisition and performance of pavlovian approach behavior [PDF]
Stimuli paired with primary rewards can acquire emotional valence and the ability to elicit automatic, Pavlovian approach responses that have been shown to be mediated by the nucleus accumbens. The present experiment investigated the effects of infusions

Central dopamine D2 receptors regulate plasma glucose levels in mice through autonomic nerves
Recent evidence suggests that the central nervous system (CNS) regulates plasma glucose levels, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. The present study investigated the role of dopaminergic function in the CNS in regulation of plasma glucose levels in

Tracking Genetic Parkinson's Disease with Molecular Imaging: A Systematic Review
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a worldwide, complex neurodegenerative disorder influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Around 15–20% of PD cases are linked to genetic mutations, providing insights into the disease's pathogenesis.

Acute and Chronic Local Field Potential Recordings in Dystonia—A Systematic Review
Abstract Dystonia is a hyperkinetic movement disorder increasingly conceptualized as a disorder of distributed network dysfunction involving the basal ganglia, cortex and cerebellum. Local field potentials (LFPs) recorded from deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes provide a unique opportunity to characterize the electrophysiological signatures ...

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 ...
