Abstract excerpt

Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with both genetic and environmental factors; however, sporadic forms of PD account for > 90 % of cases, and PD prevalence has doubled in the past 25 years.

Unlike other neurodegenerative diseases, PD can be induced in vivo using specific neurotoxic...
