Neuropsychological Tests for Detecting Prodromal DLB: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background The prodromal phase of Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) remains unexplored and poorly defined. This systematic review scrutinised studies on the earliest cognitive DLB deficits, focusing on the most useful neuropsychological tests. Methods From an initial pool of 2307 articles, 37 articles met inclusion criteria including either a ...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain. Cell transplantation, which aims to replace these lost neurons, has emerged as a promising approach. Early attempts using fetal ventral mesencephalic tissue showed proof‐of‐concept, with some patients achieving long‐term motor improvement. However,

In this study, human astrocytes were obtained from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients carrying the G2019S LRRK2 mutation, the most common genetic cause of PD. These astrocytes display a reactive and inflammatory profile, with increased GFAP levels, elevated cytokine release, and reduced support for dopaminergic ...

Early differentiation of atypical Parkinsonian syndromes, including progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), from idiopathic Parkinson's disease (iPD) remains clinically difficult. Circular RNAs are stable regulatory RNA molecules enriched in brain tissue and measurable in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
