“…The purpose of this study was to address this issue and the underlying mechanism. We established VD rat model using the bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) and applied the LIFUS (center frequency = 0.5 MHz; I_spta = 500 mW/cm², 10 mins/day) to bilateral medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) for 2 weeks since 2 weeks after the surgery. …”

Genetic Regulation of α-Synuclein mRNA Expression in Various Human Brain Tissues by Colton Linnertz (258148)

“…However whether genetic variability in the <em>SNCA</em> gene modulates the risk to develop sporadic PD via regulation of <em>SNCA</em> expression remained elusive. We studied the effect of PD risk-associated variants at <em>SNCA</em> 5′ and 3′regions on <em>SNCA</em>-mRNA levels <em>in vivo</em> in 228 human brain samples from three structures differentially vulnerable to PD pathology (substantia-nigra, temporal- and frontal-cortex) obtained from 144 neurologically normal cadavers. …”
