The universal non-neuronal nature of Parkinson's disease: A theory

2016-04-14

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, yet the etiology of the majority of its cases remains unknown. In this article, relevant published evidence is interpreted and integrated into a comprehensive hypothesis on the nature, origin and intercellular mode of propagation of sporadic PD. We propose to characterize sporadic PD as a pathological deviation in the global gene expre...
