Exploratory Study of the Expression of the Serotonergic 5-HT4 Receptor in Parkinson's Disease
Exploratory Study of the Expression of the Serotonergic 5-HT4 Receptor in Parkinson's
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Oct 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The research aim to study in detail the motor, cognitive and affective modifications of Parkinsonian patients (compared to control subjects) at a moderate stage of the disease and to analyze by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the specific radioligand \[11C\]SB207145 the expression levels of this 5-HT4 receptor. At the same time, the study will monitor the impact of the 5-HTTLPR polymorphisms of Serotonin Transporter (SERT) and Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met on the expression of the 5-HT4 receptor in subjects.
