Cholinergic degeneration is significant in Lewy body disease, including Parkinson's dementia with bodies, and isolated REM sleep behaviour disorder. Extensive research has demonstrated cholinergic alterations the CNS of these disorders. More recently, studies have revealed denervation organs that receive parasympathetic denervation.

Concomitant Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology is a frequent event in the context of Lewy body (LBD), occurring approximately half all cases. Evidence shows that LBD patients with AD copathology show an accelerated course, greater risk cognitive decline and overall poorer prognosis. However, LBD-AD cases may heterogeneous motor non-motor phenotypes higher dementia and, consequently, be not rarely misdiagnosed. In this review, we summarize current understanding by discussing synergistic effects neuropathological changes their clinical relevance. Furthermore, provide extensive overview neuroimaging fluid biomarkers under assessment for use possible diagnostic prognostic values. can predicted vivo means CSF, MRI PET markers, whereas most promising technique to date identifying different biological tissues α-synuclein seed amplification assay.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological that causes both motor and nonmotor symptoms. While our understanding of putative mechanisms has advanced significantly, it remains challenging to verify biomarkers with sufficient evidence for regular clinical use. Clinical symptoms are the primary basis diagnosing disease, which can be mild in early stages overlap other disorders. As result, testing medical records mostly relied upon diagnosis, posing substantial challenges during initial diagnosis continuous monitoring. Recent biochemical, neuroimaging, genetic have helped us understand pathophysiology disease. This comprehensive study focuses on these biomarkers, were chosen based their relevance, methodological excellence, contribution field. Biochemical including α-synuclein glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), predict severity progression. The dopaminergic system widely used as neuroimaging biomarker diagnose PD. Numerous genes genome wide association (GWAS) sites been related development research SNCA gene leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) shown promising results. By evaluating current studies, this review intends uncover gaps validation use, while also highlighting improvements. It emphasizes need dependable reproducible indicators improving PD prognosis. These may open up new avenues progression tracking, personalized treatment programs.

Objective The phenotype of patients with Parkinson's disease carrying GBA 1 variants (GBA‐PD) suggest similarities to symptomatology associated early cholinergic system degeneration. Therefore, this study aims investigate the clinical features and innervation pattern in GBA‐PD versus those without GBA1 mutation (non‐GBA‐PD). Methods A total 46 104 non‐GBA‐PD subjects were included. Clinical assessments included motor non‐motor evaluation, as well a comprehensive neuropsychological examination. Cholinergic integrity was assessed using 8 F‐Fluoroethoxybenzovesamicol ( 18 F‐FEOBV) positron emission tomography (PET) differences between non‐GBA‐PD. Given higher prevalence females GBA‐PD, analyses repeated when stratified by sex. Additionally, we examined association cognitive domains whole‐brain binding both groups.

We observed more pronounced denervation compared non‐GBA‐PD, primarily anterior, central, limbic regions.

Parkinson’s disease (PD) unfolds with pathological processes and neurodegeneration well before the emergence of noticeable motor symptoms, providing a window for early identification. The extended prodromal phase allows use risk stratification measures markers to pinpoint individuals likely develop PD. Importantly, growing body evidence emphasizes heterogeneity within clinically diagnosed comprises distinct subtypes exhibiting diverse clinical manifestations, pathophysiological mechanisms, patterns α-synuclein progression in central peripheral nervous systems. There is pressing need refine definition identification these subtypes. This requires comprehensive strategy that integrates genetic, pathological, imaging, multi-omics markers, alongside careful observation subtle non-motor symptoms. Such multi-dimensional classification PD will improve our understanding underlying pathophysiology, predictions endpoints, trajectory medication response, contribute drug discovery personalized medicine by identifying subtype-specific facilitate trials reducing confounding effects heterogeneity.
