Variable selection using machine-learning to identify new signatures of patient-derived aggregated α-synuclein-induced neurodegeneration in non-human primates
Objective: Emerging evidence strongly suggests that α-synuclein, a major protein component of LB, may be responsible for the spreading of the pathological process within affected…Experimental rotenone model
Objective: To evaluat rotene model of parkinsonian syndrome in rats. Background: Rotenone is of highly lipophilic substances that can freely enter hematoencephalic barrier through and…Distinct Blood Leukocytes Expression Profiles of Long Non-coding RNAs and mRNAs in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: The study aims to identify the significant altered long non-coding RNAs (LncRNA) mRNAs expression profiles of blood leukocytes from Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, which…Nanoscale imaging reveals disorganization of the brain extracellular space in Lewy body-injected mice
Objective: To explore the brain extracellular space and its matrix at a nanometric scale in a context of α-synuclein-induced neurodegeneration. Background: The extracellular space (ECS)…Cell and animal models lacking RAB39B show biochemical and behavioural phenotypes that model aspects of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the pathogenic mechanisms underlying RAB39B-mediated Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: PD is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of dopaminergic neurons in the…Pupil evaluation as the test for the clinical manifestations of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We clarify the correlation between abnormality in 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy and task-evoked pupillary response in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Background: MIBG scintigraphy is one…The increased α-syn expression inhibits exosomal secretion
Objective: Exosomes, nano-sized extracellular vesicles, play an important role in many physiological processes in the central nervous system. Recently, we and others have demonstrated that…The Association between Infections and Parkinson Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Objective: Our study aimed to recapitulate and summarize the findings from the literature to provide an overview on the correlation between infection and PD. Background:…Neurophysiological correlates of bradykinesia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: In the present study we aimed to investigate whether objective measures of bradykinesia in Parkinson’s disease have any relationship with neurophysiological measures in primary…Tetrahydroisoquinoline Molecule Identified in Traditional Ayurveda Medicine Modulates Inflammation in MPTP Mice
Objective: Potential ‘Anti-parkinsonian’ activity of a tetrahydroisoquinoline (TIQ) molecule of traditional ‘Ayurveda’ medicine was tested in a preclinical MPTP mice model for Parkinson’s disease (PD).…
