PsychoGenics has a long history of expertly designed and executed preclinical studies of essential tremor (ET), a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary and rhythmic shaking, commonly affecting the hands. ET affects millions of people worldwide and can significantly impact their daily activities.
Harmaline-Induced Tremor Model
As a model of ET, we employ harmaline-induced tremors in rodents, which replicate the measurable tremor events observed in patients. Our studies have shown that propranolol and primidone effectively attenuate these tremors, providing valuable insights into potential therapeutic interventions.
