The Effects of Sodium Hydrosulfide on Motor Learning in a Rat Model of Parkinson’s Disease
Background Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), a novel endogenous gasotransmitter, plays an important role in neuromodulation and memory performance and also protects neurons against neurotoxin-induced neurodegeneration. Objective This study aimed to investigate the potential neuroprotective effects of Sodium Hydrosulfide (NaHS), on motor learning in a unilateral 6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) rat model of Pa...
متن کاملDiagnosis and differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism.
In the clinic setting, most cases represent either Parkinson's disease (PD) or one of the other neurodegenerative disorders that make up the parkinsonism-plus syndromes. The major parkinsonism-plus syndromes include progressive supranuclear palsy, multiple system atrophy, corticobasal degeneration, as well as parkinsonism occurring in the context of Alzheimer's disease or one of the other prima...
متن کاملMolecular imaging (SPECT and PET) in the evaluation of patients with movement disorders.
In this article the role of molecular imaging with SPECT and PET in patients with movement disorders is reviewed. It is mentioned that SPECT and PET imaging with cocaine analogues ((123)I-beta-CIT,(123)I-FP-CIT, (18)F-DOPA), radioligands labeling the presynaptic dopamine transporters, is of value for the differentiation of patients with PD or Parkinson-plus syndromes with individuals with essen...
متن کاملAcoustic Evaluation of Nasality in Cerebellar Syndromes
Although previous studies have reported the occurrence of velopharyngeal incompetence connected with ataxic dysarthria, there is a lack of evidence related to nasality assessment in cerebellar disorders. This is partly due to the limited reliability of challenging analyses and partly due to nasality being a less pronounced manifestation of ataxic dysarthria. Therefore, we employed 1/3-octave sp...
متن کاملAccuracy of the National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke/Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and neuroprotection and natural history in Parkinson plus syndromes criteria for the diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy.
Autopsy is the diagnostic gold standard for progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (NINDS-SPSP) criteria for the clinical diagnosis of "probable" PSP are thought to possess high specificity and low sensitivity. The NINDS-SPSP criteria for "possible" PSP are considered to increase sensitivit...
