Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The research aim to study in detail the motor, cognitive and affective modifications of Parkinsonian patients (compared to control subjects) at a moderate stage of the disease and to analyze by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the specific radioligand \[11C\]SB207145 the expression levels of this 5-HT4 receptor. At the same time, the study will monitor the impact of the 5-HTTLPR polymorphisms of Serotonin Transporter (SERT) and Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met on the expression of the 5-HT4 receptor in subjects.
