Title: Probing the role of skin cannabinoid receptors in Parkinson’s disease induced seborrheic dermatitisAbstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a complex multifactorial and chronic neurodegenerative disease. It is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, following Alzheimer’s disease.1 PD is hallmarked by the formation of aggregated α-synuclein into Lewy bodies, and the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in […]
