abstract = {The prevailing network perspective of Parkinson's disease
(PD) emerges not least from the ascending neuropathology
traceable in histological studies. However, whether
longitudinal in vivo correlates of network degeneration in
PD can be observed remains unresolved. Here, we applied a
trimodal imaging protocol combining 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose
(FDG)- and 18F-fluoro-L-Dopa- (FDOPA)-PET with resting-state
functional MRI to assess longitudinal changes in midbrain
metabolism, striatal dopamine depletion and striatocortical
dysconnectivity in 17 well-characterized PD patients.
Whole-brain (un)paired-t-tests with focus on midbrain or
striatum were performed between visits and in relation to 14
healthy controls (HC) in PET modalities. Resulting clusters
of FDOPA-PET comparisons provided volumes for seed-based
functional connectivity (FC) analyses between visits and in
relation to HC. FDG metabolism in the left midbrain
decreased compared to baseline along with caudatal
FDOPA-uptake. This caudate cluster exhibited a longitudinal
FC decrease to sensorimotor and frontal areas. Compared to
healthy subjects, dopamine-depleted putamina indicated
stronger decline in striatocortical FC at follow-up with
respect to baseline. Increasing nigrostriatal deficits and
striatocortical decoupling were associated with
deterioration in motor scores between visits in
repeated-measures correlations. In summary, our results
demonstrate the feasibility of in-vivo tracking of
progressive network degeneration using a multimodal imaging
approach. Specifically, our data suggest advancing striatal
and widespread striatocortical dysfunction via an
anterior-posterior gradient originating from a hypometabolic
midbrain cluster within a well-characterized and only mild
to moderately affected PD cohort during a relatively short
period.},
