Impairment of neuronal activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex occurs early in parkinsonism by Noah Hjelle, Biswaranjan Mohanty, Tanner Hubbard, Matthew D. Johnson, Jing Wang, Luke A. Johnson, Jerrold L. Vitek

“…Little is known, however, regarding how neuronal activity in the executive control network of the brain changes in the parkinsonian condition.ObjectiveInvestigate the impact of parkinsonism on neuronal activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), a key region in executive control, during a go/nogo reaching task.MethodsUsing a within-subject design, single and multi-unit neuronal activity was recorded in the DLPFC of a nonhuman primate (n = 1) before and after the induction of mild parkinsonism using the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP).ResultsCoincident with development of mild parkinsonian motor signs, there was a marked reduction in the percentage of DLPFC cells with significant task-related firing rate modulation during go and nogo conditions.ConclusionThese results suggest that DLPFC dysfunction may occur early in parkinsonism and contribute to cognitive impairments and disrupted executive function often observed in PD patients.…”

One in a Million: A Case Report of Stiff Person Syndrome by Ruchi Yadav, Neeraj Abrol, Sima Terebelo

“…Stiff person syndrome (SPS) is a rare autoimmune disease caused by lack of inhibition to excitatory neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS) leading to inappropriate motor unit firing. The pathophysiology is incompletely understood; however, high titers of antiglutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (anti-GAD Ab) are strongly associated with this disease. …”

Dopaminergic modulation of propofol-induced activation in VLPO neurons: the role of D1 receptors in sleep-promoting neural circuits by Kun Qian, Kun Qian, Yu Zhang, Yang Liu, Sisi Wu, Zikun Duan, Jianhao Liao, Jianhao Liao, Wei Luo, Mo Zhou, Xuejiao Dou, Xingkui Liu, Tian Yu

“…We assessed the effects of PRO on spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents (sEPSCs) and inhibitory postsynaptic currents (sIPSCs) in NA (−) neurons, both in the presence and absence of dopaminergic receptor modulators.ResultsPRO significantly increased the firing frequency of NA (−) neurons while decreasing the firing frequency of NA (+) neurons. …”
