2. [Role of the cerebellum in the control of distal motor activities in patients with akinetic-rigid Parkinson disease]

Author

Rita, Moretti, Paola, Torre, Rodolfo M, Antonello, Maja, Ukmar, Giuseppe, Cazzato, and Gilberto, Pizzolato

Subjects
Adult, Cerebral Cortex, Male, Parkinson Disease, Middle Aged, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Corpus Striatum, Antiparkinson Agents, Levodopa, Case-Control Studies, Cerebellum, Humans, Female, Psychomotor Performance, Aged
Abstract

Using f-MRI, we have studied the changes induced by the performance of a complex sequential motor task in the cortical areas of nine akinetic PD patients and compared to that of healthy volunteers. Compared with normal subjects, PD patients showed a reduction of activation of motor and SMA areas, an increase of activation of parietal areas and a bilateral activation of cerebellar hemispheres, which are likely to participate in the attempt to recruit parallel motor circuits in order to overcome the striatocortical defective loop.
