    Gait disturbance and olfactory dysfunction is associated with central cholinergic dysfunction in early Parkinson’s disease

    E. Oh, Y. Lim, S. Park (Daejeon, Republic of Korea)

    Objective: We hypothesis that olfactory dysfunction, could be an independent predictor of gait disturbance in early PD. Background: The pathophysiology of gait disturbance is not fully…

    The tricyclic antidepressant medication nortriptyline inhibits alpha-synuclein accumulation, aggregation and toxicity in multiple in vitro and in vivo models.

    T. Collier, L. Lapidus, C. Sortwell, C. Justman, P. Lansbury, K. Paumier (Grand Rapids, MI, USA)

    Objective: Using preclinical models, assess the potential disease-modifying effects of nortriptyline (NOR) as a treatment in early Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: PD and other synucleinopathies…

    Alpha-synucleinopathy and mitochondrial dysfunction in a cell based model of neurodegeneration: Implications in the pathogenesis of sporadic Parkinson’s disease

    U. Ganguly, O. Sen, A. Ganguly, S. Chakrabarti (Kolkata, India)

    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…

    Exposure to bifenthrin contributes to Parkinson’s disease in mouse model

    C. Han, S. Liu, J. Huang, L. Liu, K. Ma, X. Guo, S. Guo, L. Wang, Y. Shen, Y. Xia, F. Wan, N. Xiong, T. Wang (Wuhan, China)

    Objective: To explore the relationship between pyrethroid bifenthrin and Parkinson’s disease on mouse model. Background: Pyrethroid is now widely used on account of its high…

    Epitope mapping of CSF auto-antibodies to alpha-synuclein

    R. Akhtar, J. Licata, K. Luk, D. Covell, J. Trojanowski, V. Lee (Philadelphia, PA, USA)

    Objective: To identify α-synuclein (α-syn) epitopes bound by endogenous auto-antibodies in CSF from healthy controls (HC) and Parkinson disease (PD) patients. Background: In PD, endogenous…
