[S-29-3] Animal model for disease-modifying therapies in PD

Hodaka Yamakado (Kyoto University Hospital, Japan)

For the realization of disease-modifying therapies (DMT) in PD, appropriate animal models for the preclinical study and early and progression biomarkers in PD are essential. As a target of DMT much attention have been paid for mitochondria and alpha synuclein, especially. The aim of this symposium is, 1) to update recent findings in biomarkers and animal models in PD including its prodromal stage, and 2) to introduce novel therapeutic approach, focusing on mitochondria and alpha-synuclein which are the key players in idiopathic PD.
