Abstract
Device-aided therapies (DAT), which include deep brain stimulation and pump-based continuous dopaminergic stimulation with either levodopa or apomorphine, are among the major advances in the clinical management of Parkinson's disease (PD). Although DAT are being increasingly offered earlier in the disease course, their classical indication remains advanced PD. Theoretically, every patient should be offered transition to DAT when faced with refractory motor and nonmotor fluctuations and functional decline. Worldwide clinical reality is far from these ideal, and, therefore, question the "real-world" equal opportunity of access to DAT for PD patients with advanced PD-even within a single health care system. Differences in access to care, referral pattern (timing and frequency), as well as physician biases (unconscious/implicit or conscious/explicit bias), and patients' preferences or health-seeking behaviour are to be considered. Compared to DBS, little information is available concerning infusion therapies, as well as neurologists' and patients' attitudes towards them. This viewpoint aims to be thought-provoking and to assist clinicians in moving through the process of DAT selection, by including in their decision algorithm their own biases, patient perspective, ethical concerns as well as the current unknowns surrounding PD prognosis and DAT-related long-term side effects for a given patient.

Abstract
Genome-wide gene expression data for cell model of Parkinson's disease (PD) have considerably improved our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in cell death during PD neurodegeneration. Apomorphine (APOM), a nonselective dopamine agonist, has been used to treat patients with advanced PD showing no response to levodopa or other dopamine agonists. Although APOM plays a role as a free radical scavenger with neuroprotective effect, it has been reported that long-term use of APOM in PD treatment brings about side effects such as nausea and orthostatic hypotension. For safe use of APOM in PD treatment, it is crucial to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms of APOM in PD. In this study, two groups of microarray data including PD cell model and APOM added PD cell model were used to survey mediation effects of APOM in PD cell model. Mediation analysis between disease genes obtained from PD cell model and drug genes obtained from APOM added PD cell model was carried out with shortest path model on KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) pathways and partial least squares structure equation modeling. Our results suggest that drug genes responding to APOM might contribute to negative regulation of disease genes by direct or indirect ways.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective therapy for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, sometimes, it is not sufficient to adequately control motor symptoms. We describe our experience with continuous subcutaneous apomorphine infusion (APO) in patients with DBS. METHODS We undertook a retrospective analysis of all patients treated with DBS and APO at our centre over 12 years. Subjects were allocated to four groups: (1) APO temporarily before DBS, (2) APO after DBS complications before a new DBS, (3) APO after definitive DBS removal, and (4) APO in patients with DBS and declining response. Motor state and other parameters were analysed and compared for the different treatments. RESULTS Data for 71 patients were evaluated. Group 1: (n = 18) patients improved their motor function significantly with both APO and DBS (off-hours before APO 5.4 ± 1.4; after APO 1.4 ± 1.2, p > 0.001; after DBS 0.7 ± 0.8, p < 0.001). Group 2: (n = 11) patients were found to have mild but significant worsening of motor state between the first DBS treatment (off-hours 0.7 ± 1.0) and APO (2.2 ± 1.5, p = 0.02), and improvement between APO and the second DBS treatment (off-hours 0.6 ± 0.8, p = 0.03). Group 3: (n = 12) patients had mild but significant worsening of motor function between DBS (off-hours 1.1 ± 1.0) and APO (2.0 ± 0.9, p = 0.03). Group 4: (n = 13) significant improvement in motor function was observed between DBS alone (off-hours 3.9 ± 2.6) and DBS combined with APO (2.2 ± 1.3, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION In advanced PD, DBS may be not sufficient or may fail to control motor symptoms adequately. In these cases, APO, whether alone or in combination with DBS, is a good choice to improve the disease control.

Abstract
Objective Deep brain stimulation (DBS) for treatment of advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD) has two anatomical targets: the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and the globus pallidus internus (GPI). The clinical effectiveness of these two stimulation targets was compared in the present study. Methods A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to evaluated the postoperative changes in the United Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) on- and off-phase, on-stimulation motor scores; activities of daily living score (ADLS); and levodopa equivalent dose (LED) after STN and GPI stimulation. Randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials of PD treated by STN and GPI stimulation were considered for inclusion. Results Eight published reports of eligible studies involving 599 patients met the inclusion criteria. No significant differences were observed between the STN and GPI groups in the on-medication, on-stimulation UPDRS motor score [mean difference, 2.15; 95% confidence interval (CI), −0.96–5.27] or ADLS (mean difference, 3.40; 95% CI, 0.95–7.76). Significant differences in favor of STN stimulation were noted in the off-medication, on-stimulation UPDRS motor score (mean difference, 1.67; 95% CI, 0.98–2.37) and LED (mean difference, 130.24; 95% CI, 28.82–231.65). Conclusion The STN may be the preferred target for DBS in consideration of medication reduction, economic efficiency, and motor function improvement in the off phase. However, treatment decisions should be made according to the individual patient’s symptoms and expectations.

Abstract
Apomorphine is a non-narcotic derivative of morphine, which acts as a dopamine agonist to produce psychostimulant like effects. Currently, apomorphine is used in patients with advanced Parkinson׳s disease, for the treatment of persistent and disabling motor fluctuations, but a constellation of addictive syndromes such as excessive over use of medication, compulsive behaviors, and disturbances of impulse control are noticed in certain patients. Research on rodent models using conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm also shows that the drug is rewarding. Previously we have shown that repeated administration of apomorphine produces behavioral sensitization which is prevented in rats co-injected with a low (1.0mg/kg) but not higher (2.0mg/kg) dose of buspirone. The present study shows that rewarding effects of apomorphine (1.0mg/kg) in a CPP paradigm are also blocked in rats co-injected with a low (1.0mg/kg) but not higher (2.0mg/kg) dose of buspirone. The levels of serotonin and its metabolite are decreased in the caudate as well as nucleus accumbens of rats exhibiting CPP and the decreases do not occur in animals co-injected with low or higher dose of buspirone. The levels of dopamine and its metabolites are not affected in animals exhibiting CPP; administration as well as co-administration of higher dose of buspirone decreased dopamine metabolism in the caudate as well as nucleus accumbens. The findings suggest a critical role of serotonin in the rewarding effects of apomorphine and imply that co-use of buspirone at low doses can help to control addictive syndromes in Parkinson׳s disease patients on apomorphine therapy.

Abstract
Apomorphine is the most potent dopamine receptor agonist and its symptomatic effectiveness is comparable to levodopa. Subcutaneous apomorphine is rapidly and completely absorbed. Plasma peak concentrations are achieved after 5-15 minutes and onset of clinical effect is within 20 minutes. Apomorphine intermittent subcutaneous injections are effective as rescue therapy for unpredictable off periods in advanced Parkinson disease (PD). More often apomorphine is administered as a subcutaneous infusion which secures the continuous dopaminergic stimulation. The benefit on 'off' periods is consistent across all studies, but dyskinesia improvement is not so obvious. Two infusion therapies (apomorphine and intraduodenal levodopa) and deep brain stimulation (DBS) are effective in advanced PD patients with untreatable motor complications. Apomorphine infusions should be considered in patients unable to undergo DBS because of cognitive impairment and neurosurgical contraindications.

Abstract
Apomorphine (APO) is an aporphine derivative used in human and veterinary medicine. APO activates D1, D2S, D2L, D3, D4, and D5 receptors (and is thus classified as a non-selective dopamine agonist), serotonin receptors (5HT1A, 5HT2A, 5HT2B, and 5HT2C), and α-adrenergic receptors (α1B, α1D, α2A, α2B, and α2C). In veterinary medicine, APO is used to induce vomiting in dogs, an important early treatment for some common orally ingested poisons (e.g., anti-freeze or insecticides). In human medicine, it has been used in a variety of treatments ranging from the treatment of addiction (i.e., to heroin, alcohol or cigarettes), for treatment of erectile dysfunction in males and hypoactive sexual desire disorder in females to the treatment of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Currently, APO is used in patients with advanced PD, for the treatment of persistent and disabling motor fluctuations which do not respond to levodopa or other dopamine agonists, either on its own or in combination with deep brain stimulation. Recently, a new and potentially important therapeutic role for APO in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease has been suggested; APO seems to stimulate Aβ catabolism in an animal model and cell culture, thus reducing the rate of Aβ oligomerisation and consequent neural cell death.
