Minimum MDS-UPDRS part III change needed to convert a Parkinson’s disease patient from the OFF to full ON state with apomorphine sublingual film (APL-130277)
Objective: Determine the minimum MDS-UPDRS Part III improvement needed to convert a patient from the morning OFF state to a full ON with APL-130277. Background:…Effect of vibration on motor performance: A new intervention to improve bradykinesia in Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: Here we propose to test whether bradykinesia in Parkinson's disease (PD) can be ameliorated by non-invasive interventions (peripheral tactile vibration) that decrease sensory precision.…Increased cerebrospinal fluid lactate levels in Parkison’s disease: Is it a proof of mitochondrial inefficiency?
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the impairment of neuronal energy metabolism, as measured by means of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lactate…Synaptic homeostasis in Parkinson’s disease: An high-density EEG study in different stage of the disease
Objective: In order to corroborate these findings, we submitted 29 Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with different stage of disease to an all-night high-density EEG (hd-EEG)…The effects of viral priming on neurotoxin induced neurodegeneration and synapse dysfunction in cell culture models relevant to Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the effects of viral innate immune activation on neurodegeneration and synaptic protein expression in dopaminergic (DA)-like neurons following treatment with Parkinson's disease…Characterization of striatal TH-immunoreactive cells in chronic and acute L-DOPA treatment in a mice model of Parkinson´s disease
Objective: To characterize Tyrosine Hydroxylase immunoreactive cells (TH-ir) in a mouse model of hemiparkinsonism and L-DOPA induced dyskinesia. Background: L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias (LID) are a severe…Is levodopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson’s disease associated with increased blood brain barrier permeability and volumetric changes?
Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the angiogenetic hypothesis for Levodopa-induced-dyskinesia (LID) using advanced MRI methods in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).…Parkinson’s disease onset on non-dominant side predicts greater motor disability
Objective: Evaluate (1) the effect of dominant-side onset (DSO) vs non-dominant-side onset (NDSO) of Parkinson's disease (PD) on motor impairment in a large multicenter cohort…Exploring aging-VMAT2 gene-rotenone interactions in a cell model for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To develop a Parkinson's disease (PD) model based on aging, vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) gene susceptibility and chronic rotenone exposure in SK-N-SH cell,…Saliva swallowing frequency measured using 24-hours ambulatory impedance-pH monitoring in patients with Parkinson’s disease and drooling
Objective: To assess the feasibility of using 24-hours ambulatory impedance-pH monitoring (24-hAlpHM) to precisely measure saliva swallowing frequency (SSF) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).…
