This case series supports that elevated IgA anti-beta(2)GPI antibody titres may identify additional patients who have clinical features of APS but who do not meet current diagnostic criteria. | |||||||||||||||

|
To better deal with the bradykinesia and rigidity, stimulation of the GPi and STN became the preferred targets. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
By applying DBS, the fluctuations that the TC cell receives are decreased, despite an overall increase in GPi-cell firing. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
So, if increasing the frequency of GPi activity through stimulation of the STN had the same effect as burning a hole in the GPi, the reason had to lie in the dynamics of the effect of increasing the firing rate of the GPi. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In post-mortem samples from LD-treated parkinsonian patients, increased preproenkephalin expression in the putamen and increased GABA(A) receptors content in the internal globus pallidus (GPi) are found in dyskinetic parkinsonian patients compared to non-dyskinetic patients. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
So, if increasing the frequency of GPi activity through stimulation of the STN had the same effect as burning a hole in the GPi, the reason had to lie in the dynamics of the effect of increasing the firing rate of the GPi. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
We have evidence of excessive activity of the GPi in Parkinsons disease, but stimulation of the STN should further increase the GPi activity. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
AP and PHI frequently became elevated only in very advanced disease, their elevation supported the clinical evidence of progression. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
These examples envision direct stimulation of GPi, and our results are consistent with those of Pirini et al. (2008) demonstrating that open-loop stimulation of GPi can be a strong suppressor of thalamic activity (figure 13). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Note that w increases when the GPi current increases in figure 13a(iii) (solid black line). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
DBS of the GPi or STN has almost identical effects on the symptoms of Parkinsons disease as do lesions of the GPi or STN. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Immunohistochemistry of synovia from RA patients showed high concentrations of GPI on the surface of the synovial lining and on the endothelial cell surface of arterioles [40]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
However, by analyzing a GPI-PLC null mutant trypanosome it was shown that the GPI-PLC is not essential and is not necessary for antigenic variation, though it influences parasitemia in mice [164]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
However, despite recent reaffirmation of the GPI/cytokine/disease concept [69], the group that first suggested that GPI was the main TNF inducer in malaria appear to have recently [25] changed their disease model to one that eliminates a requirement for inflammatory cytokines. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Indeed, this study reports having established that GPI appears sufficient and necessary for the induction by malarial parasites of host pro-inflammatory responses in vitro. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Second, the existing literature suggests an extensive loss of intestinal mucosal CD4+ T cells associated with an increase of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells during PHI [10]. | |||||||||||||||
