Different patterns of spontaneous brain activity between tremor-dominant and postural instability/gait difficulty subtypes of Parkinson’s disease: A resting-state fMRI study
Objective: This study aimed at investigating the subtype-specific patterns of spontaneous brain activity in PD. Background: Postural instability/gait difficulty (PIGD) and tremor-dominant (TD) subtypes of…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…Impact of prolonged temporal discrimination threshold on finger movements of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: In present study, we investigated the impact of temporal discrimination threshold (TDT) prolongation on simple repetitive finger tapping and dexterous finger movement in patients…Multidisciplinary group program integrating voice and dance movement therapy for Parkinson’s disease patients: Preliminary experience
Objective: To examine the effects of “Voice in Motion“ group therapy on movement, speech and QOL of PD patients. Background: Physical exercise and speech therapy…Dissecting the molecular mechanisms of Fyn-mediated levodopa induced dyskinesias
Objective: To investigate the crosstalk between D1 receptor (D1R) and the signaling of Fyn protein kinase in a mice model of levodopa (L-DOPA) induced dyskinesias…Olfaction and gray matter volume in Parkinson’s disease. A voxel-based morphometry study
Objective: To evaluate the relation between olfactory functioning and gray matter (GM) volume in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Olfactory impairment is one of…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…Urate and homocysteine: Changes in motor and cognitive symptoms in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease
Objective: 1) To determine serum urate and homocysteine concentration at baseline, 18 and 36 months in control and PD participants. 2) To determine if urate…Dysregulated macroautophagy and mitochondrial dynamics in PD with glucocerebrosidase mutations
Objective: To investigate markers of macroautophagy and mitochondrial dynamics in fibroblasts and postmortem brain of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with glucoerebrosidase (GBA1) mutations and controls.…Mitochondrial-nuclear interplay in single respiratory chain-deficient Parkinson’s disease neurons
Objective: To explore the role of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the development of respiratory chain complex (CI-IV) deficiencies in the substantia nigra (SN) of…
