Probiotics for Parkinson's Disease.

TL;DR: Status on use of probiotics for PD is provided and a link between alterations in gut microbiota and PD has also opened a new line, suggesting a bidirectional pathway between the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system.

Gut Microbiota Differs Between Parkinson's Disease Patients and Healthy Controls in Northeast China.

TL;DR: Gut microbiota significantly differed between a group of PD patients and healthy controls in Northeast China, with decreased species richness, phylogenetic diversity, β-diversity, and altered relative abundance in several taxa compared to the controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enteric nervous system manifestations of neurodegenerative disease.

TL;DR: The organization and functions of the ENS are described and the evidence for ENS involvement in two common neurodegenerative disorders, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease are reviewed.

Characterization of biometal profiles in neurological disorders.

TL;DR: Evaluating the reported excess or deficiency of metal ions in various neurological disorders and aim to integrate reported alterations in metal ions to generate a characteristic biometal profile for the disorder, and investigating the behavioural phenotypes of rodent models suffering from alterations in biometals to assess whether a shared behavioural phenotype exists.

Relationships of gut microbiota, short-chain fatty acids, inflammation, and the gut barrier in Parkinson’s disease

TL;DR: Intestinal inflammatory responses and reductions in fecal SCFAs occur in PD, are related to the microbiota and to disease onset, and are not reflected in plasma inflammatory profiles.

Analysis of relative gene expression data using real-time quantitative pcr and the 2(-delta delta c(t)) method

TL;DR: The 2-Delta Delta C(T) method as mentioned in this paper was proposed to analyze the relative changes in gene expression from real-time quantitative PCR experiments, and it has been shown to be useful in the analysis of realtime, quantitative PCR data.

Accuracy of clinical diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease: a clinico-pathological study of 100 cases.

TL;DR: The pathological findings in 100 patients diagnosed prospectively by a group of consultant neurologists as having idiopathic Parkinson's disease are reported, and these observations call into question current concepts of Parkinson's Disease as a single distinct morbid entity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Staging of brain pathology related to sporadic Parkinson’s disease

TL;DR: This study traces the course of the pathology in incidental and symptomatic Parkinson cases proposing a staging procedure based upon the readily recognizable topographical extent of the lesions.

Reactive microglia are positive for HLA‐DR in the substantia nigra of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease brains

TL;DR: The detected large numbers of HLA-DR-positive reactive microglia (macrophages) in the substantia nigra of all cases studied with Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism and suggest a frequent coexistence of DAT- and Parkinson-type pathology in elderly patients.
