Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cortical neurons as a disease model for X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism
Objective: To elucidate the disease-associated cellular phenotype of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons of patients affected by X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP). Background: XDP is…Phosphorylation by GSK-3β enhances binding of metal ion induced tau oligomers to neutral lipid surfaces
Objective: To dissect the complex interplay of tau hyperphosphorylation, metal ion induced oligomer formation and membrane interactions applying single particle fluorescence techniques. Background: Fibrillar deposits…Propranolol therapy for tardive dyskinesia: A retrospective examination
Objective: To examine the tolerability and effectiveness of propranolol in treating tardive dyskinesia (TD). Background: TD is a disabling, often irreversible, movement disorder that results…1 to 40 years later: Delayed effects of brain radiation presenting as parkinsonism
Objective: To report 3 adult cases of delayed radiation induced parkinsonism, with latency ranging from 1 to 40 years. . Background: Unequivocal radiation induced parkinsonism…Age associated effects of levodopa administration on striatal acetylcholinesterase activity
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare short- and long-term effects of levodopa on acetylcholinesterase activity in young and old rat brain striatum.…Manganese-induced parkinsonism and motor neuron damage- Can there be a relationship?
Objective: The aim of the study was evaluation of clinical, radiological and ENMG characteristic of ephedronic encephalopathy(EE). Background: The ephedrone abuse is widely spread among…Chorea – Ballism drug induced in replacement treatment with thyroid hormones – Case presentation
Objective: We present the case of a 56 years-old female patient that presented chorea movements after the initiation of replacement treatment with thyroid hormones. Background:…A comparative study of clinical profile of patients of drug induced parkinsonism with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Drug induced parkinsonism (DIP), caused by various group of drugs, is second most common etiology of parkinsonism after Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). No major…Drug-induced parkinsonism in Taiwan
Objective: To review drug-induced parkinsonism (DIP) in Taiwan. Background: Drug-induced parkinsonism (DIP) is a frequent etiology of secondary parkinsonism. DIP must always be suspected when…Incidental finding of drug-induced movement disorder
Objective: Recognizing a drug-induced movement disorder is critical as only stopping using over the counter dopamine-blocking medications such as metoclopramide can reverse or improve clinical…
