“…Therefore, a decrease in dopaminergic neurotransmission in prodromal PD will affect both innate and adaptive immune responses. Equally, dopaminergic drugs might affect immune cells as shown in several studies analysing T-cells in PD patients [ 109, 110 ].…”

Interestingly, Hurny et al [13] have shown recently that levodopa decreased the CD 25 /CD 3 ratio, the antigen marker characteristic of apoptotic death within the T/CD 3 (+) lymphocyte population in the peripheral blood of PD patients. However, longterm levodopa treatment therapy is accompanied by abnormal involuntary movements known as levodopainduced dyskinesia [1].…”
