Abnormal bidirectional plasticity-like effects in Parkinson's disease

Abstract: Levodopa-induced dyskinesia is a major complication of long-term dopamine replacement therapy for Parkinson's disease that becomes increasingly problematic in advanced Parkinson's disease. Although the cause of levodopa-induced dyskinesias is still unclear, recent work in animal models of the corticostriatal system has suggested that levodopa-induced dyskinesias might result from abnormal control of synaptic plasticity. In the present study, we aimed to explore control of plasticity in patients with Parkinson'… Show more

“…With regard to LID, the enlargement of dendritic spines (Fig. 5A and 5C) would account for the lack of depotentiation-like cortical plasticity in patients with LID (Huang et al, 2012). In fact, using patch-clump recording the supersensitivity of IT-type neurons was confirmed in the LID model ( Fig.…”

“…Conversely, the induction of LTD causes spine shrinkage (Zhou et al, 2004). The abnormal preservation of LTP-like plasticity in the motor cortex in patients with dyskinesia (Huang et al, 2012) represents supersensitivity of the motor cortex. With regard to LID, the enlargement of dendritic spines (Fig.…”
