Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Bioavailability Enhancement: Drug Solubility Enhancement

264
Body:Bioavailability is a critical factor in determining a drug's effectiveness. It refers to the proportion of a drug that enters the circulation when introduced into the body and is, as a result, able to have an active effect. Enhancing bioavailability is essential for drugs with poor solubility, as it can significantly impact their therapeutic efficacy. Various methods are employed to increase the solubility of drugs, thereby enhancing their bioavailability.Micronization and nanonization are...

Multiple Regression

4.0K
Multiple regression assesses a linear relationship between one response or dependent variable and two or more independent variables. It has many practical applications.
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...

Bioavailability Enhancement: Drug Permeability Enhancement

210
Body:After oral administration, poor permeability often limits the rate at which drugs are absorbed through the intestinal epithelium. Enhancing drug permeability is crucial for effective therapy, and several strategies have been developed to overcome this challenge.One effective strategy involves the use of lipid-based formulations. These formulations enhance dissolution and solubility, targeting physiological mechanisms to increase drug absorption. This includes stimulating bile salt...

Bioavailability Enhancement: Drug Stability Enhancement and GI Retention

224
Body:Improving a drug's stability in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is paramount for enhancing its bioavailability and therapeutic effectiveness. Various strategies are employed to protect the drug from the harsh gastric milieu and to ensure its release and absorption at the desired site within the GI tract.Polymer coatings are one such method used to shield drugs from the stomach's acidic environment. By preventing premature drug release, these coatings improve the bioavailability of unstable...

Summary

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) with a Parkinson's-like presentation shows distinct alpha-synuclein pathology. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) does not worsen MSA neuroinflammation but may be linked to disease progression.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Neuropathology
  • Neurodegenerative Diseases

Background:

  • Multiple system atrophy (MSA) can mimic Parkinson's disease (PD), leading to misdiagnosis.
  • Deep brain stimulation (DBS), effective for PD, is often ineffective or detrimental in MSA patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate neuropathological differences between MSA patients treated with DBS and typical MSA cases.
  • To determine if these differences explain the benign clinical course in some MSA patients and rapid decline after DBS.

Main Methods:

  • Post-mortem neuropathological assessment of brain regions (subthalamic nucleus, globus pallidus, thalamus, putamen).
  • Comparison of five MSA patients who received DBS with nine typical MSA cases.
  • Analysis of neuroinflammation and alpha-synuclein pathology.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences in neuroinflammatory profiles between DBS-treated and typical MSA groups.
  • DBS-treated MSA patients showed a higher proportion of alpha-synuclein inclusions in the putamen.
  • Neuron survival rates were similar between the groups.

Conclusions:

  • Deep brain stimulation (DBS) does not appear to induce neuroinflammation in multiple system atrophy (MSA).
  • Increased alpha-synuclein inclusions in the putamen may correlate with a milder, "PD-like" phenotype and slower progression in MSA.
