Association of CSF biomarkers with motor and non-motor features in moderately advanced Parkinson’s disease cohort: the BioFIND study
Objective: Evaluate associations between CSF biomarkers of neurodegeneration and clinical phenotype in Parkinson’s disease (PD) participants of the BioFIND cohort. Background: Levels of CSF α-synuclein…Catecholamines’ concentration ratio in plasma of early diagnosed treatment-naive patients with Parkinson disease
Objective: To investigate the concentration of some catecholamines (dopamine, DOPA and DOPAC) in the blood plasma and their ratio to each other depending on sex, form and…Inhibition of mitochondrial complex I synthesis by chloramphenicol mitigates dopaminergic neuronal cell loss in PQ-induced parkinsonism
Objective: To find the potent drug for prevention of PD, we screened with above 1000 drugs in the PQ treated cells which currently used drug…Alpha-synucleinopathy and mitochondrial dysfunction in a cell based model of neurodegeneration: Implications in the pathogenesis of sporadic Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To elucidate the role of α-synuclein, parkin and mitochondria in a cell-based model of neurodegeneration relevant to Parkinson's disease pathogenesis. Background: The suggested mechanisms…a-synuclein neurotoxicity and spreading using Lewy Body extracts from Parkinson Disease Brains: In vitro screening by cell-based assays
Objective: To define the kinetics of neuronal and astrocytic abnormalities induced by human-derived α-syn aggregates for grounding the use of such system to identify and…Anti-synuclein alpha antibodies and IL-1β at Parkinson Disease (PD).
Objective: Determine a correlation between the levels of anti-synuclein alpha antibodies and IL-1β at serum and CSF of patients with PD. Background: PD is a…Admixing augments nigral dopaminergic correlates during development to impart resistance to MPTP-toxicity at adulthood
Objective: Establish the developmental basis for varying nigral dopaminergic (DA) correlates in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) susceptible C57BL/6, MPTP resistant CD-1 and their resistant crossbred mice. Background:…Dopamine substitution restores effective connectivity between prefrontal and premotor areas in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess influences of dopamine deficiency on the causal interplay within the motor network during bimanual finger tapping in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Background:…Assessment of neurodegeneration and spreading of α-synuclein pathology induced by structurally defined α-synuclein assemblies in wild-type mice
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate, in wild-type mice, the spreading and neurodegeneration induced by intracerebral injection of structurally well-defined α-synuclein assemblies…Serum lipid profile in Parkinsons disease patients from Southern Spain
Objective: Our first aim was to evaluate differences in the blood lipid profile levels between Parkinsons disease (PD) patients and healthy controls (HC). Secondly, in…
