Abstract

Introduction: In Parkinson's disease, L-dopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) and motor fluctuations incapacitate patients as much as the disease itself. Many studies demonstrated that postsynaptic alterations and striatal synaptic plasticity changes play a role in LID development. Here, we aimed to study the role of striatal presynaptic proteins in LID pathogenesis.
