Descompresión lumbar en pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson: serie de casos tratados con cirugía mínimamente invasiva
Lumbar decompression in patients with Parkinson’s disease: series of cases treated with minimally invasive surgery

Introducción: La enfermedad de Parkinson afecta principalmente a personas >65 años. El cuadro degenerativo lumbar en el contexto de un canal estrecho sumado a la alteración neuromuscular y la mala calidad ósea, favorece al desequilibrio sagital y coronal. Los pacientes que necesitan ciru...

Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 regulates cell proliferation and apoptosis via miR-135b-5p/GPNMB axis in Parkinson's disease cell model

Biol. Res; 54 (), 2021
BACKGROUNDS: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common age-related neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. This research aimed to investigate the effects and mechanism underlying long non-coding RNA metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) in PD. METHODS: SK-N-SH and SK-N-BE cells were tr...

Pre-treatment by Rosemary Extract or Cell Transplantation Improves Memory Deficits of Parkinson's Disease: When Tradition Meets the Future

ABSTRACT The therapeutic effect of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) or RE on hippocampal neurogenesis and memory in Parkinsonian rats were investigated. Male rats were lesioned by bilateral intra-nigral injections of 6-OHDA and divided into six groups: 1. Lesion 2 and 3: RE and water groups were...

Landmarks for the Location of the Subthalamic Nucleus Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Arq. bras. neurocir; 39 (4), 2020
Deep brain stimulation has become an option for advanced Parkinson’s disease treatment since the 1990s, but the first reports are from Benabid’s team, a French neurosurgeon, in the 1980s. The subthalamic nucleus (STN), more specifically its dorsolateral portion, is the most commonly stimulated brain ...

Subthalamic Nucleus: Neuroanatomical Review

Arq. bras. neurocir; 39 (4), 2020
Discovered in 1865 by Jules Bernard Luys, the subthalamic nucleus is a set of small nuclei located in the diencephalon, inferior to the thalamus and superior to the substantia nigra, that can be visualized in a posterior coronal section. Histologically, it consists of neurons compactly distributed and fi...
