Efficient control of dopamine neuron physiology for rescuing disease phenotypes
Objective: Dopamine neurons (DAs) of the substantia nigra degenerate in Parkinson's disease and are disrupted in Huntington's disease. Here we propose single cell computational modeling…Striatal dopamine transporter abnormalities in pure autonomic failure and speculation about the relationship with Lewy bodies
Objective: To reveal dopamine transporter (DAT) abnormalities in pure autonomic failure (PAF) and speculate about the relationship with the Lewy body progression pathway. Background:…Piper betle L. Attenuates 6-OHDA Induced Apoptosis in SH-SY5Y Cells and Neuronal Injury in Caenorhabditis elegans Parkinson’s Model
Objective: To explore the anti-apoptotic effects of Piper bitle leaf extract (PLE) on 6-OHDA induced cellular injury in human neuroblastoma cell SH-SY5Y. To analyse the neuroprotective…Presynaptic dopamine depletion predicts late complications and time of progression to advanced disease in patients with early Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate whether the degree of reduced dopamine transporter binding in the striatum is a risk factor for late complications and time of progression…The relationship among clinical features, DAT scintigraphy and MIBG cardiac scintigraphy in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate correlations among clinical features of Parkinson's disease (PD), odor stick identification test for Japanese (OSIT-J) score,…Neuromelanin imaging is useful for monitoring disease progression in Parkinson’s disease and PARK2
Objective: Using neuromelanin (NM)-MRI, we analyzed whether disease severity and MF is associated with the degree of dopaminergic neuronal degeneration in the substantial nigra compacta…Study of striatal dopamine transporter function in Alzheimer’s disease with parkinsonism
Objective: To clarify the pathological basis for Alzheimer's disease (AD) with parkinsonism using striatal dopamine transporter (DAT) scan. Background: Pathological basis for parkinsonism in AD…Cellular senescence induced by paraquat drives neuropathology associated with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To understand the role of cellular senescence in brain aging and neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease models. Background: Although cellular senescence has been causally linked…Curcumin supplementation improves motor dysfunction in lipopolysaccharide induced Parkinon’s disease model: Possible biochemical, neurochemical and immunohistochemical alterations in rats
Objective: In the present study potential neuroprotective effects of curcumin were tested to determine if they could help to minimize microglia–mediated damage in single intranigral…Generation of dopaminergic neurons for studying Parkinson’s disease using patient blood cells
Objective: To study the molecular mechanism of G2385R mutation of LRRK2 gene in PD developing, dopaminergic neurons are derived from patient specific induced pluripotent stem…
