Update on Therapeutic Strategies for Atypical Parkinsonian Syndromes
Atypical Parkinsonian syndromes include multiple systems atrophy (MSA), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal degeneration (CBD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). These conditions show signs of dopamine deficiency, but unlike Parkinson’s disease (PD), they do not respond to dopamine...
