Abstract

This review addressed advances in the development of neuroprotective and progression-modifying therapies in Parkinson's disease (PD). Literature analysis highlighted the potential of therapeutic strategies based on antioxidants, gene therapy, and other innovative approaches to slow down PD progression. The results of reviewed studies suggest that these therapies show significant promise in reducing motor symptoms and preserving dopaminergic function. However, challenges such as PD heterogeneity and lack of robust biomarkers remain significant obstacles to translating these findings into effective therapies. Ongoing research and interdisciplinary collaboration are essential to drive innovation and transform these promising therapeutic perspectives into clinical reality.
