| Tartalmi kivonat: | Millions of individuals around the world are afflicted with Parkinson's disease (PD), a prevalent and incapacitating neurodegenerative disorder. Dr. Reichmann, a distinguished professor and neurologist, has made substantial advancements in the domain of PD research, encompassing both fundamental scientific investigations and practical applications. His research has illuminated the etiology and treatment of PD, as well as the function of energy metabolism and premotor symptoms. As a precursor to a number of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators that are implicated in the pathophysiology of PD, he has also investigated the application of tryptophan (Trp) derivatives in the disease. His principal findings and insights are summarized and synthesized in this narrative review article, which also emphasizes the challenges and implications for future PD research. This narrative review aims to identify and analyze the key contributions of Reichmann to the field of PD research, with the ultimate goal of informing future research directions in the domain. By examining Reichmann's work, the study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of his major contributions and how they can be applied to advance the diagnosis and treatment of PD. This paper also explores the potential intersection of Reichmann's findings with emerging avenues, such as the investigation of Trp and its metabolites, particularly kynurenines, which could lead to new insights and potential therapeutic strategies for managing neurodegenerative disorders like PD. |
