Identification of microRNAs for the early diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy [PDF]
MicroRNAs are reportedly involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy. We previously identified 7 differentially expressed microRNAs in Parkinson’s disease patients and control sera

Gustatory rhinitis in multiple system atrophy
Gustatory rhinitis is a type of nonallergic, noninflammatory rhinitis. A high incidence of rhinorrhea, including gustatory rhinitis, is reported in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Herein, we report a case of gustatory rhinitis in a patient with a

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a sporadic, adult-onset, relentlessly progressive neurodegenerative disorder, clinically characterized by various combinations of autonomic failure, parkinsonism and ataxia. The neuropathological hallmark of MSA are glial cytoplasmic inclusions consisting of misfolded α-synuclein.
