The Effect of 5-HT1A Receptor Agonists on the Entopeduncular Nucleus is Modified in 6-Hydroxydopamine-Lesioned Rats
(Wiley, 2021-06)
Background and Purpose l-DOPA prolonged treatment leads to disabling motor complications as dyskinesia that could be decreased by drugs acting on 5-HT1A receptors. Since the internal segment of the globus pallidus, homologous ...
Changes in Day/Night Activity in the 6-OHDA-Induced Experimental Model of Parkinson’s Disease: Exploring Prodromal Biomarkers
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-14)
The search for experimental models mimicking an early stage of Parkinson's disease (PD) before motor manifestations is fundamental in order to explore early signs and get a better prognosis. Interestingly, our previous ...
Interaction between the 5-HT system and the basal ganglia: functional implication and therapeutic perspective in Parkinson's disease
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-03-17)
The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) has a multifaceted function in the modulation of information processing through the activation of multiple receptor families, including G-protein-coupled receptor subtypes (5-HT1, ...
Acute L-DOPA administration reverses changes in firing pattern and low frequency oscillatory activity in the entopeduncular nucleus from long term L-DOPA treated 6-OHDA-lesioned rats
(Elsevier, 2019-12)
The pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) is associated with aberrant neuronal activity and abnormal high levels of oscillatory activity and synchronization in several basal ganglia ...
Impairment of Serotonergic Transmission by the Antiparkinsonian Drug L-DOPA: Mechanisms and Clinical Implications
(Frontiers Media, 2017-09-12)
The link between the anti-Parkinsonian drug L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) and the serotonergic (5-HT) system has been long established and has received increased attention during the last decade. Most studies have ...
GAT-3 Dysfunction Generates Tonic Inhibition in Exter nal Globus Pallidus Neurons in Parkinsonian Rodents
(Cell Press, 2018-05-08)
The external globus pallidus (GP) is a key GABAergic hub in the basal ganglia (BG) circuitry, a neuronal network involved in motor control. In Parkinson's disease (PD), the rate and pattern of activity of GP neurons are ...
Effects of adult enriched environment on cognition, hippocampal- prefrontal plasticity and NMDAR subunit expression in MK-801- induced schizophrenia model
(Elsevier, 2019-05-01)
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by psychosis, negative symptoms and cognitive impairment. Cognitive deficits are enduring and represent the most disabling symptom but are currently poorly treated. N-methyl ...
Serological Antibodies against Kidney, Liver, and Spleen Membrane Antigens as Potential Biomarkers in Patients with Immune Disorders
(MDPI, 2024-02-07)
Immune disorders arise from complex genetic and environmental factors, which lead to dysregulation at the cellular and inflammatory levels and cause tissue damage. Recent research highlights the crucial role of reactive ...
