TL;DR: Results indicate that EDT has a central pressor action, and the action might be mediated, at least in part, by catecholamine release to the periphery, which might play a role in the central control of blood pressure, although the physiological implications have not yet been determined.

TL;DR: An important unifying area for neurobiological research examining mechanisms of normal brain aging and of age-related neuropathology, as observed in Alzheimer's disease, might emerge from the identification of NO* as a simple molecule serving vital physiological functions but representing potential for neurotoxicity.

TL;DR: The identification of NO as a simple molecule serving vital physiological functions but representing potential for neurotoxicity presents an important unifying area for neurobiological investigations searching for mechanisms of normal brain aging and of age-related neuropathology, as observed in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: Results indicate that a putative DA release mechanism and its cholinergic modulation of the aged striatum are impaired and do not correlate with motor performance within either age group.

TL;DR: This scale was employed in 110 patients at the University Hospital and 106 patients staying in the nursing home or long-stay geriatric hospital in order to study its validity and may guarantee a moderate or greater degree of interrater reliability.
