Multi-modal recruitment strategy leads to expeditious enrollment in STEADY-PD III
Objective: To review a successful multi-modal recruitment strategy in a clinical trial of early untreated PD patients. Background: STEADY-PD III is a multicenter NINDS funded…Identification of Usp8 as a toxicity modifying deubiquitinase for α-synuclein
Objective: To study whether ubiquitination in Lewy bodies is directly relevant to α-synuclein turnover and Parkinson's pathogenesis. Background: In Parkinson's disease, misfolded α-synuclein accumulates, often…Risk factors for premature withdraw from the LS-1 PD study
Objective: To identify risk factors for premature withdrawal from a large, multi-center Parkinson's disease clinical trial of possible neuroprotection. Background: Premature withdrawal (PW) of subjects…Counteracting PINK1/parkin deficiency by activating alternative mitophagic pathway: a potential therapeutic intervention for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To identify a new therapeutic target for developing neuroprotective treatment in Parkinson's disease (PD) by improving mitochondrial function through restoration of mitochondrial quality control…Lower levels of uric acid and striatal dopamine in non-tremor dominant Parkinson’s disease subtype
Objective: To investigate whether Parkinson's disease (PD) motor subtypes differ in their levels of uric acid (UA), and if these differences correlate with the degree…A novel C. elegans model for identification of small molecules that target alpha-synuclein-mediated toxicity
Objective: To develop a novel transgenic C. elegans model to study dopaminergic neurodegeneration mediated by alpha-synuclein. Background: Targeting alpha-synuclein could be a disease-modifying strategy for…Sodium butyrate attenuates rotenone-induced neurodegeneration via enhancing autophagy and preventing α-synuclein aggregation
Objective: To investigate whether sodium butyrate (NaB) could enhance autophagy and thus exert a neuroprotective effect through the modulation of α-synuclein in animal models of…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…Piperine potentiates neuroprotective effect of curcumin in MPTP model of Parkinson’s disease in rats: Impact on neurochemical modulation
Objective: (1) Curcumin is well tolerated phenolic compound used for CNS disorder but problem is its low oral bioavailability and (2) Piperine is combined to…Participation in cognitively-stimulating activities and computer use are associated with better cognitive performance in Parkinson’s disease independent from nigrostriatal dopaminergic and cortical cholinergic degenerations
Objective: To investigate the relationship between times spent with cognitively stimulating activities and cognitive functions in Parkinson's disease (PD) while accounting for the degree of…
