Essential tremor 10, 20, 30, 40: clinical snapshots of the disease by decade of duration. Age of onset: can we rely on essential tremor patients to report this? Data from a prospective, longitudinal study. Treatment of essential tremor: are there issues we are looking for? Front Neurol 2012 2:1-8. Propranolol significantly decreased POLB gene expression but there was no significant difference in PARP1 gene expression levels in the patient group, after 8 weeks of propranolol treatment. POLB gene expression was significantly higher in the pre-treatment group than in the post-treatment group (p<0.001). There was no significant difference in PARP1 expression levels before and after 8 weeks of propranolol treatment. POLB gene expression was significantly higher in the pre-treatment ET group than in the controls (p<0.05). ![]() The Wilcoxon rank and Mann Whitney U tests were used to analyze the data.Īt baseline, PARP1 expression was significantly lower in the ET group than in the control group. In addition, pre- and post-treatment gene expression levels and Fahn-Tolosa-Marin tremor scale values of the patient group were compared after 8 weeks of propranolol treatment. Expressions of PARP1 and POLB genes were compared between the control group and the patient group. Thirty-five healthy volunteers and thirty-five patients followed up with essential tremors were included in a non-randomized control experimental study. We aimed to evaluate the effect of propranolol on the expression of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) and DNA polymerase beta (POLB) genes, which are known to be related to neurodegenerative diseases, in patients with ET. Propranolol is a first-line medication for ET. Essential tremor (ET) is the most common movement disorder. ![]()
