Chaotic desynchronization as the therapeutic mechanism of deep brain stimulation

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2011
High frequency deep-brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (DBS) relieves many of the symptoms of Parkinson's disease in humans and animal models. Although the treatment has seen widespread use, its therapeutic mechanism remains paradoxical. The

Beta Power Response After Levodopa Intake in Parkinson's Disease Patients With Chronic Sensing‐Enabled Deep Brain Stimulation

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective In Parkinson's disease (PD), the power of beta oscillations (± 13–30 hertz [Hz]) from subthalamic nucleus (STN) local field potentials (LFPs) is associated with motor symptoms. Beta power can be used for adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) algorithms based upon symptom fluctuations.

Posterior subthalamic nucleus (PSTh) mediates innate fear-associated hypothermia in mice

Nature Communications, 2021
Innate and learned fear can induce rapid changes in body temperature of mammals. The authors identify the posterior subthalamic nucleus as a major thermoregulatory hub that connects the external lateral parabrachial subnucleus to the nucleus of the ...

Imaging the Centromedian Thalamic Nucleus Using Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping. [PDF]

, 2019
The centromedian (CM) nucleus is an intralaminar thalamic nucleus that is considered as a potentially effective target of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and ablative surgeries for the treatment of multiple neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Association between Human Leukocyte Antigen Alleles and Neuropathological Outcomes in Lewy Body Disease

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Lewy body disease (LBD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of misfolded α‐synuclein in the brain. Neuroinflammation has long been implicated in LBD pathogenesis, and recent genetic studies in Parkinson's disease (a clinical manifestation of LBD) have shown consistent association with the human leukocyte ...

Effect of subthalamic deep brain stimulation on gait in patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease

Retos: Nuevas Tendencias en Educación Física, Deportes y Recreación
Introduction: Advanced Parkinson's disease severely affects gait. According to literature, deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus has scarce impact on gait in this disease.

Hominoid‐specific calretinin‐immunopositivity of the optic radiation (geniculocalcarine tract)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Calretinin‐immunostained coronal section through the primary (V1) and extrastriate (ExSt) cortex of the lar gibbon. Note that the optic radiation (OR) is strongly calretinin‐immunoreactive. This calretinin‐immunopositivity of the OR distinguishes the Hominoidea from other primates in terms of the neurochemistry of the OR.
