Cover Story: The incidence of Parkinson’s disease is the fastest growing among neurodegenerative diseases. Compelling evidence implicates inflammation, both in the central nervous system and in the periphery, in the initiation and progression of the disease, although it is unclear as of yet what triggers this response. Gut dysbiosis seems to be a likely candidate for initiating systemic inflammation. The present review discusses the various inflammatory mechanisms, signaling cascades, and mediators involved in the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s disease, as well as strategies that could be developed into disease-modifying treatments after issues related to biomarkers able to identify presymptomatic disease, indications of genetic testing, and timing for the maximum benefit of these therapies are settled. View this paper
