Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To assess the pattern of dopaminergic abnormalities in a Greek-American kindred (family H) with autosomal dominantly inherited, levodopa-responsive parkinsonism caused by a mutation of the gene encoding alpha-synuclein. BACKGROUND: Mutations of alpha-synuclein have been associated recently with dominantly inherited, levodopa-responsive parkinsonism. The pattern of dopamine deficiency and status of...
