Parkinson's disease with anxiety: clinical characteristics and their correlation with oxidative stress, inflammation, and pathological proteins. BMC Geriatr 2024; 24:433. [PMID: 38755545 PMCID: PMC11100140 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-04854-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was performed to explore the differences in the clinical characteristics and oxidative stress indicators, inflammatory factors, and pathological proteins in serum between Parkinson's disease (PD) with anxiety (PD-A) and with no anxiety (PD-NA) patients, and further correlations among clinical characteristics and above variables were analyzed in PD-A and PD-NA groups. METHODS A total of 121 patients with PD were enrolled in this study and assessed by the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (14 items) (HAMA-14). These patients were divided into PD-A and PD-NA groups according to a cut-off point of 7 of HAMA-14. Demographic variables were collected, and clinical symptoms were assessed by multiple rating scales. The levels of free radicals, inflammatory factors, and pathological proteins in serum were measured by chemical colorimetric method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The differences of above variables were compared between PD-A and PD-NA groups, and the correlations of clinical symptoms with the abovevariables were analyzed in PD-A and PD-NA groups. RESULTS The frequency of PD-A was 62.81%. PD-A group exhibited significantly impaired motor dysfunction and multiple non-motor symptoms, including fatigue, sleep behavior disorder, restless leg syndrome and autonomic dysfunction, and dramatically compromised activities of daily living compard with PD-NA group. PD-A group displayed prominently increasedlevels of hydroxyl radical (·OH) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and a decreased nitric oxide (NO) level in serum compared with PD-NA group (P<0.001, P = 0.001, P= 0.027, respectively). ·OH, NO, and TNF-α were identified as the risk factors of PD-A (OR = 1.005, P = 0.036; OR = 0.956, P = 0.017; OR = 1.039, P = 0.033, respectively). In PD patients, HAMA-14 score was significantly and positively correlated with the levels of ·OH and TNF-α in serum (P<0.001, P = 0.002, respectively). In PD-A group, ·OH level was significantly and negatively correlated with Aβ1-42 level, while TNF-α level was significantly and positively correlated with P-tau (S396) level in serum. CONCLUSIONS The frequency of PD-A is high. PD-A patients present more severe motor dysfunction and multiple non-motor symptoms, and poorer activities of daily living. The increased levels of ·OH and TNF-α levels and the decreased NO level in serum are all associated with more severe anxiety in PD patients.Findings from this study may provide in-depth insights into the clinical characteristics, underlying mechanisms of PD-A, and potential correlations among anxiety, oxidative stress, inflammation, and cognitive decline in PD patients.

Abstract
The causes of neurodegenerative diseases remain largely elusive, increasing their personal and societal impacts. To reveal the causal effects of iron load on Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis, we used Mendelian randomisation and brain imaging data from a UK Biobank genome-wide association study of 39,691 brain imaging samples (predominantly of European origin). Using susceptibility-weighted images, which reflect iron load, we analysed genetically significant brain regions. Inverse variance weighting was used as the main estimate, while MR Egger and weighted median were used to detect heterogeneity and pleiotropy. Nine clear associations were obtained. For AD and PD, an increased iron load was causative: the right pallidum for AD and the right caudate, left caudate and right accumbens for PD. However, a reduced iron load was identified in the right and left caudate for multiple sclerosis, the bilateral hippocampus for mixed vascular dementia and the left thalamus and bilateral accumbens for subcortical vascular dementia. Thus, changes in iron load in different brain regions have causal effects on neurodegenerative diseases. Our results are crucial for understanding the pathogenesis and investigating the treatment of these diseases.

Abstract
Calcium and iron are essential elements that regulate many important processes of eukaryotic cells. Failure to maintain homeostasis of calcium and iron causes cell dysfunction or even death. PD (Parkinson's disease) is the second most common neurological disorder in humans, for which there are currently no viable treatment options or effective strategies to cure and delay progression. Pathological hallmarks of PD, such as dopaminergic neuronal death and intracellular α-synuclein deposition, are closely involved in perturbations of iron and calcium homeostasis and accumulation. Here, we summarize the mechanisms by which Ca2+ signaling influences or promotes PD progression and the main mechanisms involved in ferroptosis in Parkinson's disease. Understanding the mechanisms by which calcium and iron imbalances contribute to the progression of this disease is critical to developing effective treatments to combat this devastating neurological disorder.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide. Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress play an important role in the whole course of PD, which have been the focus of PD drug development. In our previous research, a series of N-salicylic acid tryptamine derivatives were synthesized, and the biological evaluation showed that the compound LZWL02003 has good anti-neuroinflammatory activity and displayed great therapeutic potency for neurodegenerative disease models. In this work, the neuroprotective efficiency of LZWL02003 against PD in vitro and in vivo has been explored. It was found that LZWL02003 could protect human neuron cells SH-SY5Y from MPP+-induced neuronal damage by inhibiting ROS generation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cellular apoptosis. Moreover, LZWL02003 could improve cognition, memory, learning, and athletic ability in a rotenone-induced PD rat model. In general, our study has demonstrated that LZWL02003 has good activity against PD in in vitro and in vivo experiments, which can potentially be developed into a therapeutic candidate for PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Restless legs syndrome (RLS) might worsen sleep quality and quality of life in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD). OBJECTIVE The main aim of the present study is to explore the associations between RLS and sleep, quality of life and other non-motor symptoms (NMS) in a sample of PwPD. METHODS We compared the clinical features of 131 PwPD with and without RLS, in a cross-sectional study. We used several validated scales for assessment: the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group rating scale (IRLS), Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale version 2 (PDSS-2), Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39), Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire (NMSQ) and International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society Non-Motor Rating Scale (MDS-NMS). RESULTS Thirty-five patients (26.71%) out of the total PwPD met the RLS diagnostic criteria, without significant differences between male (57.14%) and female (42.87%) (p = 0.431). Higher total scores of PDSS-2 were recorded among PwPD + RLS (p < 0.001), suggesting worse sleep quality. Significant correlations were observed between the diagnosis of RLS and some types of pain (especially nocturnal pain), physical fatigue and probable sleep-disordered breathing, according to the MDS-NMSS assessment. CONCLUSIONS RLS has a high frequency in PwPD and it requires proper management, considering its consequences on sleep and quality of life.

Abstract
Backgrounds Apathy is common in Parkinson's disease (PD) but difficult to identify. Growing evidence suggests that abnormal iron metabolism is associated with apathy in PD. We aimed to investigate the clinical features and iron metabolism of apathetic patients with PD, and construct a nomogram for predicting apathy in PD. Methods Data of 201 patients with PD were analyzed. Demographic data, Apathy Scale (AS) assessments, and serum iron metabolism parameters were obtained. Spearman correlations were used to assess relationships between AS scores and iron metabolism parameters, separately for male and female patients. Additionally, a nomograph for detecting apathetic patients with PD was built based on the results of logistic regression analysis. Results The serum transferrin (TRF, p < 0.0024) concentration and total iron binding capacity (TIBC, p < 0.0024) were lower in the apathetic group after Bonferroni correction, and they were negatively associated with AS scores in male participants with PD (TRF, r = -0.27, p = 0.010; TIBC, r = -0.259, p = 0.014). The nomogram was developed by incorporating the following five parameters: age, sex, serum iron concentration, TIBC and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) scores, which showed good discrimination and calibration, with a consistency index of 0.799 (95% confidence interval = 0.732-0.865). Conclusion Abnormal iron metabolism may contribute to apathy in PD, especially among men. TIBC levels in combination with HAMD scores can be effectively used for the prediction of apathetic patients with PD.

Association between Heavy Metal Exposure and Parkinson's Disease: A Review of the Mechanisms Related to Oxidative Stress. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122467.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a gradually progressing neurodegenerative condition that is marked by a loss of motor coordination along with non-motor features. Although the precise cause of PD has not been determined, the disease condition is mostly associated with the exposure to environmental toxins, such as metals, and their abnormal accumulation in the brain. Heavy metals, such as iron (Fe), mercury (Hg), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), and lead (Pb), have been linked to PD and contribute to its progression. In addition, the interactions among the components of a metal mixture may result in synergistic toxicity. Numerous epidemiological studies have demonstrated a connection between PD and either single or mixed exposure to these heavy metals, which increase the prevalence of PD. Chronic exposure to heavy metals is related to the activation of proinflammatory cytokines resulting in neuronal loss through neuroinflammation. Similarly, metals disrupt redox homeostasis while inducing free radical production and decreasing antioxidant levels in the substantia nigra. Furthermore, these metals alter molecular processes and result in oxidative stress, DNA damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, and apoptosis, which can potentially trigger dopaminergic neurodegenerative disorders. This review focuses on the roles of Hg, Pb, Mn, Cu, and Fe in the development and progression of PD. Moreover, it explores the plausible roles of heavy metals in neurodegenerative mechanisms that facilitate the development of PD. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying metal toxicities will enable the establishment of novel therapeutic approaches to prevent or cure PD.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 106:154411. [PMID: 36030746 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.154411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Revised: 08/09/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND d-Borneol has been widely used as a drug absorption enhancer, but there are few studies on the anti-resistance ability of d-borneol combined with cisplatin in cisplatin-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cells. Ferroptosis, autophagy and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) have been reported to be associated with drug resistance. PURPOSE To investigate the molecular mechanisms and sensitizing effects of d-borneol combined with cisplatin to against drug cisplatin resistance from the perspective of ferroptosis, autophagy and EMT resistance. METHODS H460/CDDP xenograft tumor model was established to verify the antitumor activity and safety in vivo. RNA sequencing was used to predict target molecules and signaling pathways. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were used as marker of ferroptosis, and its level was determined by a dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate fluorescent probe and flow cytometry. Levels of glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and antioxidants such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and thioredoxin (Trx) involved in the balance of oxidative stress were measured by an assay kit or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Western blotting and real-time polymerase chain reaction were used to assess the regulatory mechanism of EMT markers, autophagy, and ferroptosis signaling pathways. RESULTS d-Borneol in combination with cisplatin reduced tumor volume and weight, enhanced tumor-inhibiting effects, and alleviated cisplatin-induced damage to the liver and kidney in vivo. RNA-sequencing showed that differentially expressed genes were enriched in ferroptosis. d-Borneol in combination with cisplatin promoted ROS accumulation, increased the content of MDA levels, and decreased GSH, SOD, Trx, and heme oxygenase-1 expression to induce oxidative damage. d-Borneol combination with cisplatin induced ferroptosis by promoting nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)-mediated ferritinophagy and regulating intracellular iron ion transport via upregulating PRNP and downregulating PCBP2. In addition, d-borneol combined with cisplatin promoted autophagy by upregulating expression of LC3II/ATG5/Beclin-1 and inhibited the EMT by increasing the expression of epithelial marker E-cadherin and decreasing mesenchymal markers (N-cadherin and vimentin) and transcription factors (Snail and ZEB1). CONCLUSION For the first time, our study implies that d-borneol enhanced cisplatin sensitivity by inducing ferroptosis, promoting autophagy and inhibiting EMT progression, thereby enhancing antitumor activity. It suggests that d-borneol could be developed as a novel chemosensitizers.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), including chronic disease such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and multiple sclerosis, and acute diseases like traumatic brain injury and ischemic stroke are characterized by progressive degeneration, brain tissue damage and loss of neurons, accompanied by behavioral and cognitive dysfunctions. So far, there are no complete cures for NDs; thus, early and timely diagnoses are essential and beneficial to patients' treatment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become one of the advanced medical imaging techniques widely used in the clinical examination of NDs due to its non-invasive diagnostic value. In this review, research published in English in current decade from PubMed electronic database on the use of MRI to detect specific biomarkers of NDs was collected, summarized, and discussed, which provides valuable suggestions for the early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of NDs in the clinic.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by the dopamine (DA) neuronal loss in the substantia nigra. PD impairs motor controls symptoms such as tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and postural imbalance gradually along with non-motor problems such as olfactory dysfunction, constipation, sleeping disorder. Though surplus of factors and mechanisms have been recognized, the precise PD etiopathogenesis is not yet implied. Reports suggest that various environmental factors play a crucial role in the causality of the PD cases. Epidemiological studies have reported that heavy metals has a role in causing defects in substantia nigra region of brain in PD. Though the reason is unknown, exposure to heavy metals is reported to be an underlying factor in PD development. Metals are classified as either essential or non-essential, and they have a role in physiological processes such protein modification, electron transport, oxygen transport, redox reactions, and cell adhesion. Excessive metal levels cause oxidative stress, protein misfolding, mitochondrial malfunction, autophagy dysregulation, and apoptosis, among other things. In this review, we check out the link between heavy metals like copper (Cu), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe), and lithium (Li) in neurodegeneration, and how it impacts the pathological conditions of PD. In conclusion, increase or decrease in heavy metals involve in regulation of neuronal functions that have an impact on neurodegeneration process. Through this review, we suggest that more research is needed in this stream to bring more novel approaches for either disease modelling or therapeutics.

Changes in corticostriatal connectivity and striatal tissue iron associated with efficacy of clozapine for treatment‑resistant schizophrenia. Psychopharmacology (Berl) 2022; 239:2503-2514.

Abstract
RATIONALE Though numerous studies demonstrate the superiority of clozapine (CLZ) for treatment of persistent psychotic symptoms that are characteristic of treatment-refractory schizophrenia (TRS), what remains unknown are the neural and molecular mechanisms underlying CLZ's efficacy. Recent work implicates increased corticostriatal functional connectivity as a marker of response to non-CLZ, dopamine (DA) D2-receptor blocking antipsychotic drugs. However, it is undetermined whether this connectivity finding also relates to CLZ's unique efficacy, or if response to CLZ is associated with changes in striatal DA functioning. OBJECTIVE In a cohort of 22 individuals with TRS, we examined response to CLZ in relation to the following: (1) change in corticostriatal functional connectivity; and (2) change in a magnetic resonance-based measure of striatal tissue iron (R2'), which demonstrates utility as a proxy measure for elements of DA functioning. METHODS Participants underwent scanning while starting CLZ and after 12 weeks of CLZ treatment. We used both cortical and striatal regions of interest to examine changes in corticostriatal interactions and striatal R2' in relation to CLZ response (% reduction of psychotic symptoms). RESULTS We first found that response to CLZ was associated with an increase in corticostriatal connectivity between the dorsal caudate and regions of the frontoparietal network (P < 0.05, corrected). Secondly, we observed no significant changes in striatal R2' across CLZ treatment. CONCLUSION Overall, these results indicate that changes in corticostriatal networks without gross shifts in striatal DA functioning underlies CLZ response. Our results provide novel mechanistic insight into response to CLZ treatment.

[PMID: 34902819 PMCID: PMC8821419 DOI: 10.1016/j.smrv.2021.101572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2020] [Revised: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Current theories of the glymphatic system (GS) hypothesize that it relies on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation to disseminate growth factors and remove metabolic waste from the brain with increased CSF production and circulation during sleep; thereby, linking sleep disturbance with elements of CSF circulation and GS exchange. However, our growing knowledge of the relations between sleep, CSF, and the GS are plagued by variability in sleep and CSF measures across a wide array of pathologies. Hence, this review aims to summarize the dynamic relationships between sleep, CSF-, and GS-related features in samples of typically developing individuals and those with autoimmune/inflammatory, neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental, sleep-related, neurotraumatic, neuropsychiatric, and skull atypicalities. One hundred and ninety articles (total n = 19,129 participants) were identified and reviewed for pathology, CSF circulation and related metrics, GS function, and sleep. Numerous associations were documented between sleep problems and CSF metabolite concentrations (e.g., amyloid-beta, orexin, tau proteins) and increased CSF volumes or pressure. However, these relations were not universal, with marked differences across pathologies. It is clear that elements of CSF circulation/composition and GS exchange represent pathways influenced by sleep; however, carefully designed studies and advances in GS measurement are needed to delineate the nuanced relationships.

Abstract
Aim: The objective of this narrative review was to describe the versatile links between mental status and sleep in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods: We searched randomized controlled studies, observational studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and case reports written in English in PubMed during 2015 - 2021. Additionally, to ensure the completeness of the review, a second, more in-depth literature search was performed using the same electronic database with the search inquiries of increased specificity. Results: The information on pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical features and risk factors was extracted and formed the basis for this review. Despite how widespread sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease are, there is no systematic information about their association with neuropsychiatric symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, impulse control disorders, apathy, cognitive impairment and psychosis. In this review, we described relationships between these non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease, their timeline occurrence, gap in knowledge and perspectives for further research. We suppose that early treatment of sleep disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease can reduce the incidence and extent of neuropsychiatric symptoms. Conclusion: We have demonstrated multiple, multidirectional relationships between sleep disorders and neuropsychiatric symptoms. However, some of them remain unexplored. The described knowledge can be applied to further study the possibility of influencing neuropsychiatric symptoms through the correction of sleep disorders in patients with different stages of Parkinson's disease.

Peripheral Iron Metabolism is Associated with Leg Movements on Polysomnography but Not with the Severity of Restless Legs Syndrome or Its Impact on Patients. Nat Sci Sleep 2022; 14:1829-1842.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study investigated the associations of peripheral iron status with different manifestations of restless legs syndrome (RLS), including leg movements (LMs) on polysomnography (PSG), disease severity, and impact on patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 108 patients with RLS were enrolled at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital's Center for Sleep Medicine. Demographic information, disease characteristics, RLS severity, and impact on patients were assessed through a semi-structured questionnaire. Peripheral iron indicators [serum ferritin, iron, and transferrin concentrations; unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC) and total iron-binding capacity (TIBC); transferrin saturation (TSAT)] were measured following PSG to assess sleep stages, respiratory events, microarousals and LM parameters. Data from patients with and without ferritin concentration < 50 µg/L were compared in crude analyses, and Spearman correlations of other iron indicators with RLS data were examined. An ordinal logistic regression model was used to adjust for age, sex, body mass index, years of education, age at the time of RLS onset, prior treatment (yes/no), C-reactive protein (CRP)/hemoglobin level, total sleep time and apnea-hypopnea index. RESULTS Multivariate analysis showed that periodic LMs during sleep (PLMS) and other LM parameters were significantly associated with a ferritin concentration < 50 µg/L, UIBC, TIBC, and serum transferrin concentration, but not serum iron or TSAT. By contrast, the severity and impact of RLS were not associated with a ferritin concentration < 50 µg/L or other peripheral iron indicators in the multivariate model. CONCLUSION In this study, peripheral iron status was associated mainly with motor components (LMs on PSG) rather than sensory components (severity and impact of RLS) after adequately controlling for potential confounders, such as CRP and hemoglobin levels. Commonly used peripheral iron metabolism indicators may therefore not be ideal biomarkers of RLS severity or impact on patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To shed light on the association between restless leg syndrome (RLS) and anxiety in Parkinson's disease (PD) population. METHODS This was a case-control study including 129 PD participants with and without anxiety who presented to the Aerospace Center Hospital in Beijing, China. Anxiety was evaluated by using the Beck Anxiety Index score. RLS was assessed using the minimal diagnostic criteria of the International Restless Legs Study Group and RLS symptom frequency and treatment. We then examined the relationship between RLS and anxiety by logistic regression models and subgroup as well as interaction analyses. RESULTS The proportion of RLS in PD with anxiety was significantly higher in the PD without anxiety (p < 0.001). The multivariate logistic regression models indicated that PD participants with RLS had a 5.98-fold higher risk of anxiety in PD than those without RLS (OR, 6.98; 95% CI, 2.77-17.59). Subgroup analyses indicated that PD with RLS tended to be associated with a greater risk of anxiety in all stratified subgroups (adjusted ORs >1). Furthermore, the interaction analyses revealed no interactive role in the association between RLS and anxiety. CONCLUSIONS The present case-control study suggests that RLS is an independent risk factor for anxiety in PD patients. Early attention and targeted treatment for RLS may be necessary for mood management in PD. Larger prospective cohort studies are wanted to validate these findings.

Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the correlation between sleep disorders and the concentrations of three metals analyzed from hair samples of PD patients.The hypothesis of an involvement of an imbalance of metals in the development of Parkinson's Disease (PD) has been strengthened by several clinical chemistry studies. Interestingly, while sparse, some studies have correlated the imbalance of metals in PD patients with comorbidities present in this disease. Although not all PD sufferers present sleep disturbances, significant disorders of sleep are common in this population. Methods: Sleep evaluation was divided into three parameters: sleep quality, excessive daytime sleepiness and clinically probable REM Sleep Behavior Disorder. Flame atomic absorption spectrometry (F AAS) was used to assess the concentrations of calcium, iron and zinc in hair samples collected from a population of PD patients registered in a Brazilian city and from controls (a total of 53 subjects). All subjects lived within a restricted geographical region and were exposed to similar environmental conditions. Results: PD patients with poor sleep quality and excessive daytime sleepiness exhibited significant differences in concentrations of calcium, but not iron or zinc when compared to levels found in controls and PD patients who do not report these sleeping problems. Discussion: Our data suggest that different subgroups of PD patients exist, and clinical chemistry could be useful as a biomarker for these subgroups, which needs to be confirmed in a larger patient population. Further, our data raise the question regarding whether normalization of calcium levels could improve the sleep quality and somnolence in PD patients.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the objective sleep characteristics and their related risk factors among Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with and without restless legs syndrome (RLS). Methods: A total of 125 patients with PD who underwent overnight polysomnography (PSG) were recruited consecutively. Eighty-one patients, including 27 PD with RLS (PD-RLS) and 54 PD without RLS (PD-NRLS), were included in the final analysis after 1:2 propensity score matching. Demographic, clinical, and polysomnographic data were compared between PD patients with and without RLS. The risk factors for sleep quality were examined using a multiple linear regression model. Results: The prevalence of RLS among PD patients was 28.0% (35/125). The PD-RLS group exhibited a higher score for the Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) III than the PD-NRLS group. Also, the PD-RLS patients displayed significantly shorter total sleep times, worse sleep quality, decreased stage 3 duration, a longer wake time after sleep onset, and a higher arousal index than those without RLS (all p < 0.05). In the multiple linear regression model, PD duration (β = −0.363, 95% CI: −0.652 to −0.074; p = 0.016), UPDRS-III (β = −0.356, 95% CI: −0.641 to −0.071; p = 0.016), and periodic limb movement index (PLMI) (β = −0.472, 95% CI: −0.757 to −0.187; p = 0.002) were determined to be the risk factors influencing sleep quality in PD-RLS patients. The UPDRS-III (β = −0.347, 95% CI: −0.590 to −0.104; p = 0.006) and HAMD scores (β = −0.343, 95% CI: −0.586 to −0.100; p = 0.007) were significantly associated with sleep quality after adjusting for confounding factors in PD-NRLS patients, respectively. Conclusions: PD-RLS patients exhibited more disturbed and fragmented sleep in objective sleep architecture than PD-NRLS patients. The severity of motor symptoms in PD was significantly associated with poor sleep quality in both PD-RLS and PD-NRLS patients. Notably, our findings indicated that periodic limb movements during sleep (PLMS) was the risk factor that influenced the objective sleep quality in PD patients with RLS.

Dopamine-related striatal neurophysiology is associated with specialization of frontostriatal reward circuitry through adolescence. Prog Neurobiol 2021; 201:101997.

Abstract
Characterizing developmental changes in frontostriatal circuitry is critical to understanding adolescent development and can clarify neurobiological mechanisms underlying increased reward sensitivity and risk-taking and the emergence of psychopathology during this period. However, the role of striatal neurobiology in the development of frontostriatal circuitry through human adolescence remains largely unknown. We examined background connectivity during a reward-guided decision-making task ("reward-state"), in addition to resting-state, and assessed the association between age-related changes in frontostriatal connectivity and age-related changes in reward learning and risk-taking through adolescence. Further, we examined the contribution of dopaminergic processes to changes in frontostriatal circuitry and decision-making using MR-based assessments of striatal tissue-iron as a correlate of dopamine-related neurobiology. Connectivity between the nucleus accumbens (NAcc) and ventral anterior cingulate, subgenual cingulate, and orbitofrontal cortices decreased through adolescence into adulthood, and decreases in reward-state connectivity were associated with improvements reward-guided decision-making as well as with decreases in risk-taking. Finally, NAcc tissue-iron mediated age-related changes and was associated with variability in connectivity, and developmental increases in NAcc R2' corresponded with developmental decreases in connectivity. Our results provide evidence that dopamine-related striatal properties contribute to the specialization of frontostriatal circuitry, potentially underlying changes in risk-taking and reward sensitivity into adulthood.

Sleep Disorders and Cognitive Dysfunctions in Parkinson's Disease: A Meta-Analytic Study. Neuropsychol Rev 2021; 31:643-682. [PMID: 33779875 DOI: 10.1007/s11065-020-09473-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
A relationship between sleep disorders and cognitive dysfunctions was reported in Parkinson's Disease (PD), however, some studies did not confirm the link. A meta-analytic study was performed to investigate the relationship between sleep disorders and cognitive dysfunctions, and to clarify the evolution of cognitive status in PD patients with sleep disorders.The systematic literature search was performed up to November 2020 using PubMed, Scopus, and PsycINFO databases. We included studies published in peer-reviewed journals in English providing results about neuropsychological comparison between patients with or without sleep disorders. Meta-analysis on cross-sectional data included 54 studies for REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD), 22 for Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS), 7 for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), 13 for Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), and 5 for insomnia, the meta-analysis on longitudinal data included 7 studies.RBD was related to deficits of global cognitive functioning, memory, executive functions, attention/working memory, language, and visuospatial abilities. EDS was associated with deficits of global cognitive functioning and attention and working memory abilities, whereas RLS and OSA were related to global cognitive dysfunction. Moreover, we revealed that PD patients with RBD and those with EDS performed worse than PD patients without sleep disorders at follow-up rather than baseline evaluation. Our results suggest that sleep disorders are associated with cognitive deficits supporting indirectly that these, especially the REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, reflect abnormalities of frontal networks and posterior cortical areas. Sleep disorders in patients with PD seem to also increase the risk for long-term cognitive decline.

Abstract
Essential metals including iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) with known physiological functions in human body play an important role in cell homeostasis. Excessive exposure to these essential as well as non-essential metals including mercury (Hg) and Aluminum (Al) may contribute to pathological conditions, including PD. Each metal could be toxic through specific pathways. Epidemiological evidences from occupational and ecological studies besides various in vivo and in vitro studies have revealed the possible pathogenic role and neurotoxicity of different metals. Pesticides are substances that aim to mitigate the harm done by pests to plants and crops, and are extensively used to boost agricultural production. This review provides an outline of our current knowledge on the possible association between metals and PD. We have discussed the potential association between these two, furthermore the chemical properties, biological and toxicological aspects as well as possible mechanisms of Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Al, Ca, Pb, Hg and Zn in PD pathogenesis. In addition, we review recent evidence on deregulated microRNAs upon pesticide exposure and possible role of deregulated miRNA and pesticides to PD pathogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the clinical characteristics, iron metabolism and neuroinflammation in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). METHODS We studied 379 patients with PD and 30 age-matched controls. All subjects were evaluated by Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) and a series of rating scales and were divided into PD-EDS and PD-NEDS groups according to ESS score. The concentrations of iron and iron-related proteins and inflammatory cytokines in both cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum were examined. RESULTS 1. The occurrence rate of EDS in total PD patients was 16.09%. 2. PD-EDS group had significantly severer disease stages, more severe motor and non-motor features of the disease. 3. In CSF, the concentrations of iron and IL-1β in the PD-EDS group were significantly higher and ferritin concentration was prominently lower when compared with the PD-NEDS group and the control group; ESS score was significantly associated with high concentrations of iron and IL-1β and low concentration of ferritin in the PD group. Iron concentration was positively correlated with IL-1β concentration in the PD-EDS group. 4. In serum, no changes were observed in iron and iron-related proteins and inflammatory cytokines among the three groups. CONCLUSION EDS was a common symptom in PD patients. PD patients with EDS had more severe motor and some non-motor symptoms. Overloaded iron-relevant inflammation in the brain might be an underlying mechanism of PD-EDS.

Abstract
Iron transport in the central nervous system (CNS) is a highly regulated process in which several important proteins participate to ensure this important metal reaches its sites of action. However, iron accumulation has been shown to be a common factor in different neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Sanfilippo syndrome. This review is divided into four parts. The first part describes brain iron transport in homeostasis, mentioning the main proteins involved, whereas the second part contrasts the consequences of iron dysregulation, elaborating on its role in the aforementioned neurodegenerative diseases. The third part details the functions of the main proteins involved in brain iron homeostasis and their role in neurodegeneration. In the fourth part, in order to highlight the importance of transport proteins, the focus is set on human serum transferrin, the main iron transport protein. This final part describes perspectives about the mechanisms and chemical properties of human transferrin for the development of potential targeted drug delivery systems across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) or enhancers for the treatment of neurological diseases.

Abstract
Disturbances in sleep and wakefulness are important symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) and are associated with negative effects on patients' quality of life. The analysis of literature on the relationship between RLS and PD revealed three main hypotheses explaining the relatively high incidence of RLS in PD: (1) RLS can be considered as an early (prodromal) manifestation or a predictor of PD that can outpace its main symptoms by several years (by analogy with conduct disorder during sleep with REM); (2) the high incidence of RLS in the advanced stage of PD may be associated with augmentation of previously latent RLS symptoms during prolonged dopaminergic therapy of PD; (3) a significant proportion of RLS cases in PD patients are not «classical» RLS, but represent, for example, manifestations of motor or non-motor fluctuations or a special form of stereotypy in the legs. Further research is needed to determine if any of these statements are true.

Dopamine Receptor D2 Gene (DRD2) Polymorphisms, Job Stress, and Their Interaction on Sleep Dysfunction. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17218174.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that incessant job stress could eventually result in sleep dysfunction (SD), and most importantly, the essential role dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) gene polymorphisms play in the psychopathological mechanism of SD. The Effort-Reward Imbalance scale and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were both used to access SD and job stress (JS). A significant negative correlation was observed between the sDA levels and SD subscale scores (sleep efficiency, daytime dysfunction). The findings revealed that high levels of JS were linked to a higher SD score (OR = 2.13, 95% CI: 1.46–3.12). Likewise, the homozygous A1A1 genotype of DRD2 rs1800497 was more likely to be associated with SD (OR = 2.90, 95% CI: 1.75–4.82). Compared to participants with low JS and heterozygous A1A2/A2A2 genotype, those with both high JS and homozygous A1A1 genotype had a higher SD score (OR = 5.40, 95% CI: 2.89–10.11). The A1 allele of the DRD2 rs1800497 polymorphism also enhances the likelihood of SD when undergoing JS. Besides, subjects with low JS and the homozygous A1A1 genotype also showed an increased possibility for sleep dysfunction (OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.03–4.11). Our results suggest that the DA system may interrelate with JS to affect sleep.

Parkinson's Disease-Induced Zebrafish Models: Focussing on Oxidative Stress Implications and Sleep Processes. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:1370837.

Abstract
The complex yet not fully understood pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease includes an important molecular component consisting of oxidative status changes, thus leading to oxidative stress occurrence. While no particular evidence has been reported that describes the relationship between oxidative stress and the molecular mechanisms behind Parkinson's disease development, animal model studies has shown that oxidative stress induction could modulate Parkinson's disease symptomatology. Despite the inability to perfectly replicate human disease in animals and despite that Parkinson's disease has not been reported in any animal species, animal modeling is one of the most important tools in understanding the complex mechanisms of human disorders. In this way, this study is aimed at detailing this particular relationship and describing the molecular mechanisms underlying Parkinson's disease in animal models, focusing on the potential advantages and disadvantages of zebrafish in this context. The information relevant to this topic was gathered using major scientific database research (PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Scopus) based on related keywords and inclusion criteria. Thus, it was observed that oxidative stress possesses an important role in Parkinson's disease as shown by numerous animal model studies, many of which are based on rodent experimental models. However, an emerging impact of the zebrafish model was observed in the research of Parkinson's disease pathological mechanisms with regard to disease development factors and the cause-effect relationship between oxidative stress and comorbidities (such as depression, hyposmia, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and cognitive deficits) and also with regard to the pharmacological potential of antioxidant molecules in Parkinson's disease treatment.

Abstract
The aim of the study is to investigate the role of ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 7 (ABCB7) in correlation with the progression of Parkinson's disease. Initially, the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) was used to develop a mouse model of mild and severe forms of Parkinson's disease. Histology, immunohistology, and Western blotting were used to investigate the role of ABCB7 in disease progression. Mice injected with MPTP, at doses of 18 and 30 mg/kg for 10 and 15 consecutive days, respectively, developed mild and severe forms of Parkinson's disease, respectively. Motor dysfunction is accessed through pole test in which, mild and severe forms of Parkinson's disease developed mice takes 1.7 and 3.3 times more time to reach the floor than the control mice. Similarly, in rotarod test, the progression of Parkinson's disease is evident with the progressive loss of motor stability. Histologically, the progression of Parkinson's disease is evident with formation of cell aggregates in mild form; with the formation of more Lewy body structure and tissue hardening in a severe form of Parkinson's disease. Immunohistochemistry showed gradual upregulation of ABCB7 in the cellular cytoplasm in mild stage Parkinson's disease, while significant overexpression of ABCB7 was observed in the severe forms. Western blotting results confirmed 1.6- and 2.9-fold overexpression of ABCB7 in mild and severe forms of Parkinson's disease, respectively. Collectively, the results showed that ABCB7 was present during Parkinson's disease progression. However, upregulation of ABCB7 increased the cytoplasm level of the iron-sulfur complex, which negatively regulated the iron-dependent protein and can be used to determine the progression of Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Upon release in response to stress, epinephrine (Epi) may interact with labile iron pool in human plasma with potentially important (patho)physiological consequences. We have shown that Epi and Fe3+ build stable 1:1 high-spin bidentate complex at physiological pH, and that Epi does not undergo degradation in the presence of iron. However, the interactions of Epi with the more soluble Fe2+, and the impact of iron on biological activity of Epi are still not known. Herein we showed that Epi and Fe2+ build colorless complex which is stable under anaerobic conditions. In the presence of O2, Epi promoted the oxidation of Fe2+ and the formation of Epi-Fe3+ complex. Cyclic voltammetry showed that mid-point potential of Epi-Fe2+ complex is very low (-582 mV vs. standard hydrogen electrode), which explains catalyzed oxidation of Fe2+. Next, we examined the impact of iron binding on biological performance of Epi using patch clamping in cell culture with constitutive expression of adrenergic receptors. Epi alone evoked an increase of outward currents, whereas Epi in the complex with Fe3+ did not. This implies that the binding of Epi to adrenergic receptors and their activation is prevented by the formation of complex with iron. Pro-oxidative activity of Epi-Fe2+ complex may represent a link between chronic stress and cardiovascular problems. On the other hand, labile iron could serve as a modulator of biological activity of ligands. Such interactions may be important in human pathologies that are related to iron overload or deficiency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a common neurological disease. Studies have shown that RLS is associated with a variety of medical and neurological disorders. OBJECTIVES Using the example of three associated neurological diseases, the significance for everyday therapy decisions is assessed. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic search was carried out in PubMed for all studies with the keyword "RLS" in combination with polyneuropathies (PNP), Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple sclerosis (MS) and classified according to the methodology in high, medium or low study quality. RESULTS Of 16 studies on RLS and MS, 10 were rated as "high". The high association frequency of RLS in MS between 13.3% and 65.1% (the variability possibly originates from different methods) prevents further statements about the prevalence. Within 30 studies on Parkinson's disease 17 were classified as having a high quality. In patients with Parkinson disease RLS occurs most frequently during therapy and is related to the duration of dopaminergic treatment. In patients with polyneuropathy, only 5 out of 24 studies were classified as being of high quality and an increased RLS prevalence was detected for acquired polyneuropathies with heterogeneous data for hereditary forms. CONCLUSION There is an increased prevalence of association with RLS for the diseases discussed. This prevalence is possibly determined by the pathophysiology of these disorders. These diseases are possibly characterized by genetic predispositions as well, which can hopefully be classified more accurately in the future.

Abstract
Patients with Parkinson disease (PD) often show restless legs syndrome (RLS), leg motor restlessness (LMR) and other leg restlessness (OLR) related to sensorimotor symptoms.Here, we describe 5 patients who presented with leg restlessness as an early manifestation of PD.In case 1, the patient had leg restlessness that was not LMR or RLS and preceded the onset of motor symptoms by 1 year. In case 2, LMR preceded motor symptoms by 2 years. Case 3 had unilateral RLS symptoms on the left side of the body for 33 years. Two and a half years after the spread of RLS symptoms to the right leg with increased frequency of left-sided RLS symptoms, the patient developed PD at the age of 58 years. In cases 4 and 5, RLS symptoms preceded motor symptoms by 3 months and 1 month, respectively. All patients developed Parkinsonism within 3 years (median, 1.0 year; range 0.083-2.5 years) after initial onset or exacerbation of leg restlessness. All patients had frequent leg restlessness symptoms (6-7 days per week). In our series, the preceding leg restlessness was unilateral and confined to the dominant side of the subsequent Parkinsonism, or preceding leg restlessness was bilateral but dominant on the dominant side of the subsequent Parkinsonism.Clinicians should be aware that late-onset leg restlessness (>50 years of age) including RLS, LMR, and OLR, particularly if frequent and asymmetrical, can be an early nonmotor manifestation of PD.

D3 and D1 receptors: The Yin and Yang in the treatment of restless legs syndrome with dopaminergics. ADVANCES IN PHARMACOLOGY (SAN DIEGO, CALIF.) 2019; 84:79-100.

Abstract
Dopaminergic treatments targeting the D3 receptor subtype to reduce the symptoms of RLS show substantial initial clinical benefits but fail to maintain their efficacy over time. Sensorimotor circuits in the spinal cord are the gateway for the sensory processing of the symptoms and critical for the associated leg movements that relieve the symptoms and the periodic limb movements that often develop during sleep. There is a high preponderance of the inhibitory D3 receptor in the sensory-processing areas of the spinal cord (dorsal horn), whereas the motor areas in the ventral horn more strongly express the excitatory D1 receptor subtype. D3 and D1 receptors can form functional heteromeric ensembles that influence each other. In the spinal cord, long-term treatment with D3 receptor agonists is associated with the upregulation of the D1 receptor subtype and block of D1 receptor function at this stage can restore the D3 receptor effect. Alternate scenarios for a role of dopamine involve a role for the D5 receptor in regulating motor excitability and for the D4 receptor subtype in controlling D3-like effects. A model emerges that proposes that the behavioral changes in RLS, while responsive to D3 receptor agonists, may be ultimately be the result of unmasked increased D1-like receptor activities.

Abstract
Objective: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is one of the most common non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), but its pathogenesis in a PD background is unclear. Abnormal iron metabolism may be involved, in which case it may be a marker of RLS risk. Here, the literature was systematically searched and meta-analyzed to compare iron metabolism markers between PD patients with or without RLS. Method: The databases PubMed, Embase, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, Web of Science, and SinoMed were searched for case-control and observational studies examining RLS-related changes in iron metabolism in PD, in terms of serum iron, serum ferritin and hemoglobin. Eligible studies were meta-analyzed using Stata 12.0. Results: Meta-analysis of 11 case-control studies showed that serum ferritin concentration was lower in PD patients with RLS than in those without RLS. (95%CI -0.32 to -0.03, p = 0.018). In contrast, levels of serum iron or hemoglobin did not differ significantly between PD patients with or without RLS. Conclusion: This meta-analysis may provide the first reliable pooled estimate of the correlation between abnormal iron metabolism and RLS in PD. The available evidence indicates that levels of ferritin, but not of serum iron or hemoglobin, correlate significantly with RLS in PD, with lower ferritin levels correlating to greater prevalence of RLS.

Probable RBD Associates with the Development of RLS in Parkinson's Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study. Behav Neurol 2019; 2019:7470904. [PMID: 31065297 PMCID: PMC6466878 DOI: 10.1155/2019/7470904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2018] [Revised: 01/21/2019] [Accepted: 02/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives We aimed to investigate the prevalence of restless leg syndrome (RLS) and exploring the contributing factors that affect the development of RLS in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted consisting of 178 consecutive PD patients from our hospital between October 2015 and August 2016. We divided the participants into two groups, which were PD with RLS and PD with non-RLS. Then, we recorded their demographics and clinical data to draw a comparison between PD with RLS and PD with non-RLS. Results 23 (12.92%) were diagnosed with RLS among all the enrolled PD patients. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale III (UPDRS III) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) scores, probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (PRBD), and daily levodopa equivalent dose (LED) in the PD with the RLS group were significantly different from those in the PD with the non-RLS group. Daily LED and the scores of UPDRS III and HAMD in PD patients with RLS were all higher than those in PD patients with non-RLS. PRBD, daily LED, and HAMD scores were significantly independent factors contributing to the development of RLS (OR = 4.678, 95% CI 1.372~15.944, P = 0.014; OR = 1.003, 95% CI 1.001~1.005, P = 0.019; OR = 1.094, 95% CI 1.002~1.193, P = 0.045). The severity of RLS was positively correlated with the duration of PD and daily LED (r = 0.438, P = 0.036; r = 0.637, P = 0.001). Conclusion PRBD existence, daily LED, and HAMD scores are independent factors for developing RLS in PD patients. PRBD existence is firstly proposed as an independent factor in developing RLS among PD patients. RLS severity in PD patients are positively associated with the duration of PD and daily LED.

Abstract
Background: Tremor is one of the most predominant symptoms of patients with Parkinson disease (PD), but the underlying mechanisms for tremor relating to iron and its metabolism-related proteins and the inflammatory factors in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum have not been fully elucidated. Methods: A total of 135 PD patients were divided into a tremor-dominant (PD-TD) group (N = 74) and a postural instability and gait difficulty-dominant (PD-PIGD) group (N = 39) based on the ratio of mean tremor score to the mean bradykinesia/rigid score of the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) III. Age and sex-matched healthy controls were recruited (N = 35). Demographic variables were evaluated; iron and its metabolism-related proteins and the inflammatory mediators in both CSF and serum were measured in these groups. The relevance of iron metabolism, inflammation and PD-TD were analyzed. Results: (1) The PD-TD group had significantly decreased L-ferritin, increased iron levels in CSF and increased ferritin levels in the serum compared with the PD-PIGD and control groups (P < 0.05). (2) The PD-TD group had significantly enhanced IL-6 levels in both CSF and serum compared with the PD-PIGD and control groups (P < 0.05). (3) In CSF, the IL-6 level was increased as the iron level was elevated in the PD-TD group (r = 0.308, P = 0.022). In serum, the IL-6 level was increased as the ferritin level was elevated in the PD-TD group (r = 0.410, P = 0.004). Conclusion: The interplay between disturbed iron metabolism and relevant inflammation might modulate clinical phenotypes of PD.

Abstract
Background and Purpose We investigated the frequency and clinical features of restless legs syndrome (RLS) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods This study included 74 PD patients. RLS was diagnosed in face-to-face assessments of all of the subjects based on diagnostic criteria of the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group revised in 2003. We analyzed the clinical features of PD patients with and without RLS and compared the data to idiopathic RLS. Results The frequency of RLS in the cohort was 21.6% (n=16). Two (12.5%) of the patients with RLS were not treated with dopaminergic drugs, while 14 (24.1%) of the 58 patients without RLS received treatment with dopaminergic drugs. Anxiety, depression, and quality of life (QoL) were significantly worst in patients with RLS. PD patients with RLS had significantly worse sleep quality (p=0.003) and worse scores on the cardiovascular subscale of the Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease for Autonomic Symptoms (p=0.031) compared to those without RLS. In the group of PD patients with RLS, RLS preceding PD onset was related to a lower Hoehn and Yahr stage. Conclusions We found that the frequency of RLS in the present patients with PD was higher than that in our previous study of a general population of RLS subjects. Compared to the PD patients without RLS, the present PD patients with RLS suffered from worse sleep quality and QoL, depression, anxiety, and autonomic disturbances, especially those with cardiovascular problems.

Abstract
Iron deficiency may alter dopaminergic transmission in the brain. This study investigated whether iron metabolism is associated with negative symptoms in patients with first-episode psychosis. The study enrolled 121 patients with first-episode schizophrenia spectrum disorder, whose duration of treatment was 2 months or less. Negative symptoms were measured using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinician-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity (Dimensional) scale of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). Prominent negative symptoms were defined as moderate or severe negative symptoms on the Dimensional scale of the DSM-5. Iron deficiency was defined as a serum ferritin ≤ 20 ng/mL. Patients with iron deficiency were significantly more likely to have prominent negative symptoms (45.2 vs. 22.2%; p = 0.014) and a higher PANSS negative symptoms score (p = 0.046) than those with normal ferritin levels. Patients with prominent negative symptoms had significantly lower ferritin levels (p = 0.025). The significance of these results remained after controlling for the duration of illness and other confounding variables. Our finding of an independent association between iron deficiency and negative symptoms in patients at the very early stage of illness implies that iron dysregulation has an effect on negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia. The possibility of therapeutic intervention with iron should be further investigated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a mixed disorder with the highly irregular course, inconsistent response to treatment and has no well-known mechanism for the pathophysiology. Major causes of depression are genetic, neurobiological, and environmental. However, over the past few years, altered serum levels of macro-minerals (MM) and trace elements (TE) have been recognized as major causative factors to the pathogenesis of many mental disorders. The purpose of this study was to determine the serum levels of MM (calcium and magnesium) and TE (copper, iron, manganese, selenium, and zinc) in MDD patients and find out their associations with depression risk. METHODS This prospective case-control study recruited 247 patients and 248 healthy volunteers matched by age and sex. The serum levels of MM and TE were analyzed by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Statistical analysis was performed with independent sample t-tests and Pearson's correlation test. RESULTS We found significantly decreased concentrations of calcium and magnesium, iron, manganese, selenium, and zinc in MDD patients compared with control subjects (p < 0.05). But the concentration of copper was significantly increased in the patients than control subjects (p < 0.05). Data obtained from different inter-element relations in MDD patients and control subjects strongly suggest that there is a disturbance in the element homeostasis. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that altered serum concentrations of MM and TE are major contributing factors for the pathogenesis of MDD. Alterations of these elements in serum levels of MDD patients arise independently and they may provide a prognostic tool for the assessment of depression risk.

Abstract
A wide spectrum of comorbidities has been associated with Parkinson's disease (PD), a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects more than seven million people worldwide. Emerging evidence indicates that chronic diseases including diabetes, depression, anemia and cancer may be implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of PD. Recent epidemiological studies suggest that some of these comorbidities may increase the risk of PD and precede the onset of motor symptoms. Further, drugs to treat diabetes and cancer have elicited neuroprotective effects in PD models. Nonetheless, the mechanisms underlying the occurrence of these comorbidities remain elusive. Herein, we discuss the biological and clinical implications of comorbidities in the pathogenesis, progression, and clinical management, with an emphasis on personalized medicine applications for PD.
