Objective: We aim to establish the normal reference with quantitative 99mTc-Trodat-1 (TRODAT) SPECT and verify the diagnostic performance in aged Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Background:…Neuroprotection effect of an endogenous amine, 1MeTIQ against disturbances in dopamine release induced by the neurotoxin, 6-OHDA: In vivo microdialysis study
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigated using microdialysis methodology the impact of 1MeTIQ on the disturbances of in vivo dopamine release…Carrier mediated delivery system bearing dopamine for effective management of parkinsonism
Objective: In the present investigation, amino acid coupled liposome bearing dopamine-HCl were prepared to deliver drug to the brain utilizing receptor-mediated transcytosis for effective management…Vagus nerve stimulation as a novel treatment strategy for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the therapeutic potential of chronic vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) to attenuate the behavioral and neuronal deficits observed in Parkinson's disease (PD) by…Dopaminergic medication affects choice bias in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Assess dopaminergic effects on choice bias in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Bradykinesia, rigidity and resting tremor are the core symptoms of PD, but many…Neuroprotective and antidepressant-like effects of the endogenous amines from tetrahydroisoquinoline group TIQ and 1MeTIQ in the animal model of depressive disorder: Behavioral and neurochemical studies in the rat
Objective: For the purpose of estimation neuroprotective and antidepressant-like effects of the endogenous amines 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (TIQ) and its close methyl derivative, 1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (1MeTIQ) in the…Tau dysfunction in the basal ganglia of a mouse model of tauopathy related to PSP
Objective: Determine motor coordination and neurochemical phenotypes in the basal ganglia of mice lacking the Tau protein or expressing an abnormal content of Tau isoforms.…Cognitive and depressive behavior changes in aged mice with heterozygous deletions of VMAT2 or of DAT
Objective: To evaluate cognitive and depressive behavior in aged mice with heterozygous deletions of vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT2) or of Dopamine transporter (DAT). Background: VMAT2…Is the selection of stepping impaired in PD in ON state?
Objective: To compare the selection of stepping actions during a probability reaction time task in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) in the ON state with…Engrailed enhances dopamine synthesis in healthy dopaminergic neurons
Objective: The aim of the present study was to further elucidate the role of Engrailed in dopamine neurotransmission. Background: Engrailed1 and Engrailed2, collectively Engrailed, are…
