In Parkinson's disease STN stimulation enhances responsiveness of movement initiation speed to high reward value [PDF]

, 2016
Objective: The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is part of the motor, associative, and limbic cortico-striatal circuits through which it can influence a range of behaviours, with preclinical and clinical evidence suggesting that the STN is involved in ...

Long‐Term Safety and Efficacy of Repeat Treatments with DaxibotulinumtoxinA in Cervical Dystonia: Results from the ASPEN‐Open‐Label Study

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background DaxibotulinumtoxinA (DAXI), a novel botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) formulation, was shown to be safe, effective, and long‐lasting in the treatment of cervical dystonia (CD) over one treatment cycle in the phase 3, randomized, placebo‐controlled ASPEN‐1 trial.

Subcortical correlates of consciousness with human single neuron recordings

eLife
Subcortical brain structures such as the subthalamic nucleus or the thalamus are involved in regulating motor and cognitive behavior. However, their contribution to perceptual consciousness remains unclear, due to the inherent difficulties of recording ...

Acute hemiballismus in the absence of subthalamic nucleus lesion

MGM Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
A 68-year-old male, known hypertensive on irregular medication presented with sudden onset of involuntary movements of the left upper limb, in the form of severely violent, arrhythmic, and flinging large amplitude movements for 2 days, suggestive of ...

Subthalamic nucleus stabilizes movements by reducing neural spike variability in monkey basal ganglia

Nature Communications, 2022
Chemogenetic inactivation of the subthalamic nucleus in monkeys increases spike train variability in the pallidum and prolongs movement time, suggesting its role in stabilizing pallidal spike trains to achieve stable motor control.

Effects of aging on nitrergic neurons in human striatum and subthalamic nucleus

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2015
Nitric oxide (NO) is a major neurotransmitter associated with motor control in basal ganglia. Movement disorders, as essential tremor and Parkinson’s disease, are more prevalent on aged individuals.

Functional Connectivity and Volumetrics Improve Outcome Prediction for Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the subthalamic nucleus (STN) can effectively treat motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, optimal patient selection remains challenging due to the inadequacy of outcome predictors.

Desynchronizing effect of high-frequency stimulation in a generic cortical network model

, 2012
Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (TCES) and Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) are two different applications of electrical current to the brain used in different areas of medicine. Both have a similar frequency dependence of their efficiency, with the most

The V5A13.1 envelope glycoprotein deletion mutant of mouse hepatitis virus type-4 is neuroattenuated by its reduced rate of spread in the central nervous system. [PDF]

, 1992
Following intracerebral inoculation of adult Balb/c Byj mice, the MHV-4 strain of mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) had an LD50 of less than 0.1 PFU, whereas its monoclonal antibody resistant variant V5A13.1 had an LD50 of 10(4.2) PFU.

The Persistence of Dopamine Dysregulation Syndrome after Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dopamine dysregulation syndrome (DDS) is a debilitating complication of Parkinson's disease (PD) dopamine replacement therapy (DRT) in which patients pathologically and/or compulsively use dopaminergic drugs to treat motor symptoms. Studies examining DDS outcomes following deep brain stimulation (DBS) are limited and have focused on
