Analyzing Upregulated Proteins Driving Parkinson’s Disease Progression & Evaluating Their Functions as Novel Treatment-Related Biomarkers 1:30 pm

Working with AMP PD to identify promising biomarkers of Parkinson’s disease progression Identifying pathways altered in Parkinson’s disease that can be remodulated to healthy levels with drug treatment Investigating emerging markers, such as DOPA decarboxylase, to distinguish their role as biomarkers from their function as treatment-related indicatorsRead more

Panel Discussion: What Other Fluid Biomarkers Are Being Investigated for Parkinson’s Disease Outside of Protein Aggregation & Alpha-Synuclein? 2:00 pm

Is there an aspect of the disease pathophysiology that can be captured in a broad panel and recapitulated across genetically associated PD, idiopathic PD, and others? Have there been attempts to develop an inflammatory biomarker with relative consistency across PD populations? Even at the prodromal phase, have there been advancements to develop a marker that…Read more
