Levodopa-induced dyskinesias in tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency.
The objective of this study was to characterize levodopa (l-dopa)-induced dyskinesias in patients with tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency. Clinical observation was carried out on 6 patients who were diagnosed with tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency and were treated with escalating doses of l-dopa. All 6 patients showed l-dopa-induced dyskinesias of variable intensity early in the course of treatment ...
متن کاملMultiple Sclerosis Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is the body fluid closest to the pathology of multiple sclerosis (MS). For many candidate biomarkers CSF is the only fluid that can be investigated. Several factors need to be standardized when sampling CSF for biomarker research: time/volume of CSF collection, sample processing/storage, and the temporal relationship of sampling to clinical or MRI markers of disease ac...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid proteins in meningitis
Oestradiol-178 is the most active oestrogen in premenopausal women. Assays for oestradiol are of value in the investigation of normal and abnormal ovarian function. Rapid oestradiol measurements are effective in monitoring ovulation induction in the treatment of female infertility, and sensitive assays facilitate the detection of lower oestradiol concentrations found in men and postmenopausal w...
متن کاملNovel mutations in the tyrosine hydroxylase gene in the first Czech patient with tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency.
Tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency manifests mainly in early childhood and includes two clinical phenotypes: an infantile progressive hypokinetic-rigid syndrome with dystonia (type A) and a neonatal complex encephalopathy (type B). The biochemical diagnostics is exclusively based on the quantitative determination of the neurotransmitters or their met...
متن کاملTau transgenic mice as models for cerebrospinal fluid tau biomarkers.
Levels of tau in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are elevated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. It is believed this elevation is related to the tau pathology and neurodegeneration observed in AD, but not all tauopathies have increased CSF tau. There has been little pre-clinical work to investigate mechanisms of increased CSF tau due to the difficulty in collecting CSF samples from mice, the most ...
