The basal ganglia (BG) are a highly organized network, where different parts are activated for specific functions and circumstances. The BG are involved in movement control, as well as associative learning, planning, working memory, and emotion. We concentrate on the “motor circuit” because it is the best understood anatomically and physiologically, and because Parkinson's disease is mainly thought to be a movement disorder. Normal function of the BG requires fine tuning of neuronal…

Disrupted basal ganglia output during movement preparation in hemi-parkinsonian mice accounts for behavioral deficits
- Psychology, BiologybioRxiv

Recorded activity in the SNr, a key BG output nucleus, in hemiparkinsonian mice performing a well-controlled behavioral task requiring stimulus-guided and internally-specified directional movements, suggests that parkinsonian changes in BG output underlying movement preparation contribute to the greater deficit in internal-specified in comparison to stimulus- guided movements.

Increased functional connectivity of thalamic subdivisions in patients with Parkinson’s disease

It is demonstrated that PD is associated with increases in functional connectivity between motor subdivisions of the thalamus and the supplementary motor area, and between prefrontal thalamic subdivisions and nuclei of the basal ganglia, anterior and dorsolateral prefrontal cortices, as well as the anterior and paracingulate gyri.

The severity of dopamine depletion and the consequent pathophysiologic changes that occur in basal ganglia circuits determine the severity of parkinsonian signs and treatments capable of providing and restoring more tonic and physiologic dopaminergic stimulation may avoid many of these abnormalities and lead to better clinical outcomes.
