Gut Feelings about Parkinson’s Disease: The Influence of the Gut Microbiota in a Rodent Model
Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the gut microbiota in a pilot cohort of Australian patients with PD, and a rodent model…Validation of the PREDIGT Score for the Incidence Rate of Parkinson disease
Objective: To assess the discriminative power of the PREDIGT formula for incident Parkinson disease (PD). Background: The inability to predict the incidence rate of PD…Maladaptive Nigrovagal Neuronal Plasticity Causes Ascending Alpha-Synucleinopathy in a Novel Environmental Toxin Based Rat Model of Parkinsonism
Objective: Test the hypothesis that unilateral chemogenetic inhibition of the nigrovagal pathway in the subthreshold Paraquat (P) + dietary lectin (L) exposure rat model of…Spatial distribution of Parkinson’s disease in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland
Objective: The objective of the study was to determine whether PD prevalence exhibit any spatial dependence in order to get hypothesis on PD risk or…Expenditures on pesticides and incidence of Parkinson’s disease in French farmers: a nationwide study

Objective: Learn the role of environmental toxins - rotenone in development of Parkinson's disease Background: Rotenone is a powerful pesticide. It is also a lipophilic…Heavy metals implicated in a geographical cluster of progressive supranuclear palsy induce tau accumulation and apoptotic cell death in cultured neurons
Objective: To test the hypothesis that certain metals may cause cellular damage suggesting tauopathy. This is an early step in testing the hypothesis that environmental…Exposed-Only Analysis of Gene-Pesticide Interaction in Parkinson’s Disease (PD)
