Beneficial effect of L-theanine against 3-nitropropionic acid induced neurotoxicity in rats: Possible role of neurotransmitters and nitric oxide
Objective: The present study was intended to investigate the effect of L-theanine against 3-NP induced striatal toxicity. Background: L-theanine is unique amino acid which readily…Combined imaging markers increase accuracy when predicting real life disease onset in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To identify a robust imaging marker that is capable of predicting real life disease onset in Huntington's disease (HD). Background: Huntington's disease (HD) is…Neuroprotective potential of L-theanine against excitotoxic neuronal death induced by quinolinic acid: Possible neurotransmitters and nitric oxide modulation mechanism
Objective: To evaluate the neuroprotective efficacy of L-theanine, an unique amino acid with neuroprotective properties, for its beneficial potential if any, in quinolinic acid induced…Tractography study of individuals with mutation for Huntington’s disease in symptomatic and pre-symptomatic phases
Objective: Identify the involvement of white matter tracts in HD, using this technique and, thus, evaluate it as a potential biomarker for the disease. Background:…Swallowing disorders characteristics and the relation to cognitive level, disease duration and disease severity in patients with Huntington’s disease
Objective: To characterize the swallowing disturbances of HD patients and evaluate the relation to cognition, disease duration and severity. Background: Huntington disease (HD) is a…Suicide attempts and Huntington’s disease: Perseveration, not just impulsivity
Objective: To present the hypothesis that perseveration, not just impulsivity, is a risk factor for suicide attempts in Huntington's disease (HD). Background: The elevated incidence…Early grey matter changes in structural covariance networks in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To identify network integrity changes in Huntington's disease (HD) using grey matter whole brain structural covariance networks and to examine relationships between anatomical networks…Progression of motor subtypes in Huntington’s disease: A six-year follow-up
Objective: To investigate the course of motor symptoms in Huntington's disease (HD) and their relationship with cognitive- and general functioning over time. Background: The motor…Dysphagia in early stage Huntington’s disease (HD) – Pilot observations from a multimodal imaging study
Objective: To assess the central neural control of swallowing in HD patients with mild dysphagia using a multimodal imaging approach combining qualitative and quantitative swallowing…Abnormal intrinsic brain activity reveals neural correlates of impaired cognitive function in early stage of Huntington’s disease (HD): A resting-state fMRI study
Objective: To better understand the mechanism underlying cognitive impairment in HD. Background: Cognitive impairment can precede the motor symptoms and deteriorates over time in HD…
