Evaluation of regional changes in striatal DAT binding in a progressing Parkinson’s disease (PD) cohort: Lessons for imaging biomarker assessment in disease-modifying therapeutic trials
Objective: To evaluate subregion-dependent striatal changes in dopamine transporter (DAT) binding using 123-I Ioflupane SPECT in PD participants in the Parkinson Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI)…The effects of viral priming on neurotoxin induced neurodegeneration and synapse dysfunction in cell culture models relevant to Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the effects of viral innate immune activation on neurodegeneration and synaptic protein expression in dopaminergic (DA)-like neurons following treatment with Parkinson's disease…Persistent drug-induced parkinsonism with normal dopamine transporter imaging
Objective: We investigated whether patients with persistent drug-induced parkinsonism (DIP) showing visually normal dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging had minimal changes in striatal DAT activity using…AMP kinase regulates ligand-gated K-ATP channels in substantia nigra dopamine neurons
Objective: To characterize the effect of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) on ATP-sensitive K+ (K-ATP) channels on substantia nigra compacta (SNC) dopamine neurons in slices of…
