Intervention changes acoustic peak frequency and mesolimbic neurochemistry in the Pink1-/- rat model of Parkinson disease.
The neural mechanisms underlying behavioral therapy for vocal acoustic deficits in patients with Parkinson disease is unknown. A primary hypothesis is that voice therapy may modulate mesolimbic brainstem regions, including the ventral tegmental area (VTA). The VTA is implicated in ultrasonic call pe...
