Just spotted this on the BBC news....
Early brain 'signs of Parkinson's' found.
"" Lead study author Prof Marios Politis, from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King's, said the abnormalities had been found long before movement problems had begun and before dopamine levels had changed.
"Our results suggest that early detection of changes in the serotonin system could open doors to the development of new therapies to slow, and ultimately prevent, progression of Parkinson's disease," he said. ""
