Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
In recent years, therapeutic strategies for Parkinson’s disease (PD) have been developing in many different ways. In addition to the medication, surgery, rehabilitation, and other established therapies, various options with cell therapy and neurotrophic agents and so on are becoming a reality. The pathological condition of PD, animal model making, mechanisms to progress disease status, and mechanisms of therapeutic effects of each treatment are revealed synergistically. In this Special Issue, we are seeking novel research and/or review articles on:
- the pathological condition and disease progression of PD;
- the advancement of PD model animals;
- recent therapeutic strategy;
- mechanisms of therapeutic effects, and;
- attempts to overcome PD-associated complications, such as lumbago, abnormal posture, vesicorectal disorders, and psychological problems.
In this issue, we will overview the current status of PD treatment and neurobiology research to progress the clarification of the mechanisms of PD pathology and treatment.
