Abstract

The neurochemical mechanisms underlying sleep bruxism are little understood at present. However, recent pharmacologic evidence suggests that the central dopaminergic system may be involved in the pathophysiology of sleep bruxism. This possibility was further assessed by means of functional neuroimaging of dopamine D2 receptors with single-photon-emission computed tomography (SPECT). Ten controls and ten patients with polysomnographically confirmed sleep bruxism were injected intravenously with 185 MBq (5 mCi) iodine-123-iodobenzamide, a specific D2 receptor antagonist radioligand, and data acquisition was performed 90 min post-injection. Following image reconstruction, it was found that striatal D2 receptor binding potential (basal ganglia/background ratio) did not differ significantly between bruxism patients and controls. However, side-to-side differences between unilateral values of the striatal D2 binding potential ("highest side" values minus "lowest side" values) were significantly larger for the bruxism patients (p < 0.001, by two-independent-samples t test with pooled variances). It was concluded that an abnormal side imbalance in striatal D2 receptor expression can be associated with sleep bruxism. This reinforces the ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.
