Highly Sensitive Dopamine Electrochemical Sensor Using Pt Nanoparticles on CNTs/Polypyrrole Nanocomposites

ABSTRACT Dopamine (DA) plays a vital role as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS), and its accurate quantification is essential for diagnosing neurological disorders. However, selective and sensitive detection of DA in com...

Graphene Oxide and Reduced Derivatives, as Powder or Film Scaffolds, Differentially Promote Dopaminergic Neuron Differentiation and Survival

Emerging scaffold structures made of carbon nanomaterials, such as graphene oxide (GO) have shown efficient bioconjugation with common biomolecules. Previous studies described that GO promotes the differentiation of neural stem cells and ma...

Membrane Dysfunction as a Central Mechanism in LRRK2-Associated Parkinson’s Disease: Comparative Analysis of G2019S and I1371V Variants

Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are among the most common genetic causes of Parkinson’s disease (PD), yet substantial heterogeneity exists among pathogenic variants. How mutations in distinct functional domains of LRRK2 di...

Effet de l'illumination proche infra-rouge intracérébrale chez des primates MPTP

La maladie de Parkinson (MP) est une maladie neurodégénérative chronique affectant le système dopaminergique et se traduisant par une perte des neurones dopaminergiques (DA) de la substance noire compacta (SNc) et des faisceaux nigro-striés...

Efficient electrochemical determination of dopamine in the presence of uric acid in real samples using tungsten disulfide nanostructure modified electrode

Background and purpose: Research on the detection of uric acid (URA) and dopamine (DPA) is ongoing because of the difficulties posed by their closely overlapping oxidation potentials. Tungsten disulfide nanostructures have become attractive...

Preparation and adsorption application of PLA/GO/PDA nanofiber membrane

In this study, polylactic acid/graphene oxide/Dopamine (PLA/GO/DA) porous nanofiber membrane was prepared by electrospinning. L _16 (4 ^3 ) orthogonal experiment was designed to investigate the effects of reaction temperature, reaction time...

Caenorhabditis elegans Neurotoxicity Testing: Novel Applications in the Adverse Outcome Pathway Framework

Neurological hazard assessment of industrial and pesticidal chemicals demands a substantial amount of time and resources. Caenorhabditis elegans is an established model organism in developmental biology and neuroscience. It presents an idea...

Association of SLC6A3 variants with treatment-resistant schizophrenia: a genetic association study of dopamine-related genes in schizophrenia

BackgroundMost genetic analyses that have attempted to identify a locus or loci that can distinguish patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) from those who respond to treatment (non-TRS) have failed. However, evidence from mul...

Exploring the Intestinal Microbiota and Metabolome Profiles Associated With Feed Efficiency in Pacific Abalone (Haliotis discus hannai)

Feed efficiency (FE) is critical to the economic and environmental benefits of aquaculture. Both the intestines and intestinal microbiota play a key role in energy acquisition and influence FE. In the current research, intestinal microbiota...

Effects on Dopaminergic Neurons Are Secondary in COX-Deficient Locomotor Dysfunction in Drosophila

Summary: Dopaminergic (DA) neurons have been implicated as key targets in neurological disorders, notably those involving locomotor impairment, and are considered to be highly vulnerable to mitochondrial dysfunction, a common feature of suc...

Dopamine transporter binding in symptomatic controls and healthy volunteers: Considerations for neuroimaging trials

Objective: To evaluate possible differences between brain dopamine transporter (DAT) binding in a group of symptomatic parkinsonism patients without dopaminergic degeneration and healthy individuals. Background: Dopaminergic neuroimaging st...

Photodynamic and photothermal bacteria targeting nanosystems for synergistically combating bacteria and biofilms

Abstract The escalating hazards posed by bacterial infections underscore the imperative for pioneering advancements in next-generation antibacterial modalities and treatments. Present therapeutic methodologies are frequently impeded by the ...

Blocking Honeybee Preference for Neonicotinoids by Interfering With Dopamine Signaling.

Neudesin is involved in anxiety behavior: structural and neurochemical correlates

Neudesin (also known as neuron derived neurotrophic factor, Nenf) is a scarcely studied putative non-canonical neurotrophic factor. In order to understand its function in the brain, we performed an extensive behavioral characterization (mot...

Midbrain endocannabinoids actuate dopamine-based action selection
