Abstract

Parkinson’s disease is a neurological disorder characterized by chronic progressive degeneration of nigrostriatal dopaminergic system. Although stereotactic surgery such as deep brain stimulation has been performed as surgical therapy, intracerebral cell grafting attracts increasing attention as new surgical therapy. In this review, genetically modified cell line grafting for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease will be summarized.
