The human subthalamic nucleus – knowledge for the understanding of Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
The human subthalamic nucleus differs from those of experimental animals, especially rat. In this overview cytological, developmental, and connective discrepancies are enumerated.

Objective: Magnetic resonance imaging fusion techniques guided by frame-based stereotactic computed tomography and microelectrode recordings are widely used to target the subthalamic nucleus. However, MRI is not always available.

Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is an established treatment for Parkinson's disease (PD). Using 7‐Tesla (7 T) MRI connectivity analysis to visualize the patient‐specific STN motor subdivision, we hypothesize that reprogramming patients who are stimulated outside of this subdivision can improve their ...

Subthalamic nucleus efferent projection to the cerebral cortex
A direct projection from the subthalamic nucleus to the dorsal cerebral cortex has been demonstrated in the rat using a retrograde axonal transport technique.

Subthalamic nucleus high-frequency stimulation restores altered electrophysiological properties of cortical neurons in parkinsonian rat. [PDF]
Electrophysiological recordings performed in parkinsonian patients and animal models have confirmed the occurrence of alterations in firing rate and pattern of basal ganglia neurons, but the outcome of these changes in thalamo-cortical networks remains ...

Morphological changes of glutamatergic synapses in animal models of Parkinson’s disease
The striatum and the subthalamic nucleus are the main entry doors for extrinsic inputs to reach the basal ganglia circuitry. The cerebral cortex, thalamus and brainstem are the key sources of glutamatergic inputs to these nuclei.

Phase matters: A role for the subthalamic network during gait. [PDF]
The role of the subthalamic nucleus in human locomotion is unclear although relevant, given the troublesome management of gait disturbances with subthalamic deep brain stimulation in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Abstract Background Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) improves Parkinson's disease (PD)‐related motor symptoms, but how STN DBS impacts various aspects of patient‐perceived health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) is less clear. The Patient‐Reported Outcome Measurement Instrument (PROMIS) and Quality of Life in Neurological Disorders ...
