Abstract
Parkinson's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease characterized by the accumulation of misfolded alpha-synuclein protein (Lewy bodies) in dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra and other related circuitry, which contribute to the development of both motor (bradykinesia, tremors, stiffness, abnormal gait) and non-motor symptoms (gastrointestinal issues, urinogenital complications, olfaction dysfunction, cognitive impairment). Despite tremendous progress in the field, the exact pathways and mechanisms responsible for the initiation and progression of this disease remain unclear. However, recent research suggests a potential relationship between the commensal gut bacteria and the brain capable of influencing neurodevelopment, brain function and health. This bidirectional communication is often referred to as the microbiome-gut-brain axis. Accumulating evidence suggests that the onset of non-motor symptoms, such as gastrointestinal manifestations, often precede the onset of motor symptoms and disease diagnosis, lending support to the potential role that the microbiome-gut-brain axis might play in the underlying pathological mechanisms of Parkinson's disease. This review will provide an overview of and critically discuss the current knowledge of the relationship between the gut microbiota and Parkinson's disease. We will discuss the role of α-synuclein in non-motor disease pathology, proposed pathways constituting the connection between the gut microbiome and the brain, existing evidence related to pre- and probiotic interventions. Finally, we will highlight the potential opportunity for the development of novel preventative measures and therapeutic options that could target the microbiome-gut-brain axis in the context of Parkinson's disease.

Pesticides and aging: Preweaning exposure to Chlorpyrifos induces a general hypomotricity state in late-adult rats. Neurotoxicology 2021; 86:69-77. [PMID: 34274376 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuro.2021.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
The molecular and behavioral effects of the developmental exposure to low doses of Chlorpyrifos (CPF) have been intensively studied in young (neonates and adolescents), and adult animals. However, no study examined influences of developmental CPF exposure in older adult or geriatric rats. This is relevant as such ages are generally linked to cognitive decline and the onset of specific neurodegenerative disorders, some of them previously associated with CPF exposure in both preclinical and human studies. 1 mg/kg/mL of CPF was orally administered to both male and female Wistar rats from Postnatal day 10 to 15. Animals' spatial memory, learning, compulsivity, motricity, and anxiety were analyzed with Morris Water Maze (15-16 months of age) and the Plus-maze (at 18 months of age). Results showed that postnatal CPF exposure did not alter either spatial memory, compulsive-like behaviors, or anxiety levels in late-adult rats. However, CPF exposed rats were hyposensitive to brief disruptions (Probe stage) following the learning phase and showed a general decrease in locomotor activity in both paradigms. These data are relevant as it is the first time that developmental exposure to CPF has been studied at such a late age, observing important effects in locomotor activity that could be linked to specific pathologies previously associated with CPF effects in people. Future studies should extend these findings to other behaviors and molecular outcomes.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD), a multiorgan neurodegenerative disorder associated with α-synuclein deposits throughout the nervous system and many organs, is clinically characterized by motor and nonmotor features, many of the latter antedating motor dysfunctions by 20 or more years. The causes of the nonmotor manifestations such as olfactory, autonomic, sensory, neuropsychiatric, visuospatial, sleep, and other disorders are unlikely to be related to single lesions. They are mediated by the involvement of both dopaminergic and nondopaminergic systems, and diverse structures outside the nigrostriatal system that is mainly responsible for the motor features of PD. The nonmotor alterations appear in early/prodromal stages of the disease and its further progression, suggesting a topographical and chronological spread of the lesions. This lends further support for the notion that PD is a multiorgan proteinopathy, although the exact relationship between presymptomatic and later developing nonmotor features of PD and neuropathology awaits further elucidation.

Age-dependent cognitive and affective differences in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases in relation to MRI findings. J Neurol Sci 2016; 365:3-8. [PMID: 27206864 DOI: 10.1016/j.jns.2016.03.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2015] [Revised: 03/03/2016] [Accepted: 03/18/2016] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare age-dependent changes in cognitive and affective functions related to white matter changes between patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS We retrospectively compared age-dependent cognitive and affective functions in 216 AD patients, 153 PD patients, and 103 healthy controls with cerebral white matter lesions (WMLs), periventricular hyperintensity (PVH), deep white matter hyperintensity (DWMH), micro-bleeds (MBs), and lacunar infarcts (LIs). RESULTS The average mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores were 19.6±6.1 and 26.8±3.6 in AD and PD patients, respectively. Significant decreases were found in the MMSE score, Hasegawa's dementia scale-revised (HDS-R) score, frontal assessment battery score, and Abe's BPSD score (ABS) among the age-dependent AD subgroups and in the MMSE, HDS-R, Montreal cognitive assessment, geriatric depression scale, and ABS scores among the age-dependent PD subgroups; they were worse in AD patients. White matter changes were observed in >88% and >72% of patients with AD and PD, respectively. An age-dependent direct comparison of AD and PD showed significant differences in the PVH and DWMH grades, and numbers of MBs and LIs. CONCLUSION WML-related cognitive and affective functions worsen with age in AD and PD patients; however, the abnormalities were more frequent and stronger in AD patients.
