In vivo assessment of non-dopaminergic systems in Parkinson's disease with Positron Emission Tomography

2011-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a progressive loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons. Non-dopaminergic neurotransmission is also impaired. Intraneuronal Lewy bodies, the pathological hallmark of PD, have been observed in serotoninergic, noradrenergic, and cholinergic neurons. Dysfunction of these systems could play a role in the occurrence of non-motor symptoms including fatigue. However, the exte...
