Brain tissue properties differentiate between motor and limbic basal ganglia circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Despite advances in understanding basic organizational principles of the human basal ganglia, accurate in vivo assessment of their anatomical properties is essential to improve early diagnosis in disorders with corticosubcortical pathology and optimize ...

Depression history modulates effects of subthalamic nucleus topography on neuropsychological outcomes of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2022
Patients with psychiatric symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, and visual hallucinations, may be at increased risk for adverse effects following deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus for Parkinson’s disease, but there have been relatively ...

Development of a novel gripping test for the evaluation of the finger fine motor ability in MPTP-treated monkeys [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2020
Assessing the finger fine motor ability is extremely important. However, conventional behavioral tests in monkeys are complicated and costly. We attempted to develop a new task to assess the precise finger grip in Parkinson's disease monkeys based on the

Dorsal subthalamic nucleus targeting in deep brain stimulation:microelectrode recording versus 7-Tesla connectivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Connectivity-derived 7-Tesla MRI segmentation and intraoperative microelectrode recording can both assist subthalamic nucleus targeting for deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease. It remains unclear whether deep brain stimulation electrodes placed

Modelling the effects of deep brain stimulation in the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Based on the belief that it is a locomotor control structure, the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPTg) has been considered a potential target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with symptoms refractory to ...

Metabolic and electrophysiological changes in the basal ganglia of transgenic Huntington's disease rats

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by neuronal loss in the striatum, ultimately leading to an ‘imbalance’ in the electrical activity of the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits.

Functional atlases for analysis of motor and neuropsychological outcomes after medial globus pallidus and subthalamic stimulation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Anatomical atlases have been developed to improve the targeting of basal ganglia in deep brain stimulation. However, the sole anatomy cannot predict the functional outcome of this surgery.

Pharmacogenetic stimulation of cholinergic pedunculopontine neurons reverses motor deficits in a rat model of Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) often present with axial symptoms, including postural- and gait difficulties that respond poorly to dopaminergic agents.

In Parkinson’s disease dopaminergic medication and deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus increase motor, but not reflection and cognitive impulsivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundParkinson’s disease is associated with increased impulsivity, which can be divided into several domains: motor (consisting of proactive and reactive subdomains), reflection, and cognitive impulsivity.

Sweetspot Mapping in Deep Brain Stimulation: Strengths and Limitations of Current Approaches

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Open questions remain regarding the optimal target, or sweetspot, for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in, for example, Parkinson's disease. Previous studies introduced different methods of mapping DBS effects to determine sweetspots. While having a direct impact on surgical targeting and postoperative programming in DBS, these methods ...
