Alterations of PAC-based resting state networks in Parkinson’s disease are partially alleviated by levodopa medication

Sean Mertiens,
Matthias Sure,
Alfons Schnitzler
et al.

Abstract: IntroductionParkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting the whole brain, leading to several motor and non-motor symptoms. In the past, it has been shown that PD alters resting state networks (RSN) in the brain. These networks are usually derived from fMRI BOLD signals. This study investigated RSN changes in PD patients based on maximum phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) throughout the cortex. We also tested the hypothesis that levodopa medication shifts network activity back toward a healthy… Show more

“…Taking the previous findings into consideration, we hypothesized that DBS and dopaminergic medication distinctly alter functional connectivity in RSNs, which would help to explain their differential effectiveness. Both medication and DBS together would lead to RSNs similar to healthy controls along the same line as the improvement already demonstrated with medication alone (Mertiens et al, 2023; Schneider et al, 2020)…”

Both medication and DBS together would lead to RSNs similar to healthy controls along the same line as the improvement already demonstrated with medication alone (Mertiens et al, 2023;Schneider et al, 2020) To test our hypothesis, we recorded resting state activity with eyes open in the magnetoencephalogram (MEG) of PD patients implanted with DBS. The patients were recorded in 4 different conditions: baseline (no medication, DBS turned off), only medication, only DBS turned on, and medication + DBS turned on.…”

“…In an animal model, deltahigh-gamma PAC in the motor cortex and striatum has been observed by dopamine D2 receptor blockade (Reakkamnuan et al, 2023). Altered PAC in PD has been observed at rest in both the MEG (Mertiens et al, 2023) and EEG (Miller et al, 2019;Zhang et al, 2021). This has led to speculation that PAC might be a valuable biomarker to target neuromodulation strategies (Hwang et al, 2020;Salimpour et al, 2022;Yeh et al, 2023).…”
