Brief summary
Parkinson's disease is characterized by a large number of non motor, especially neuropsychiatric, signs. Their pathophysiology is complex but the role of dopaminergic and serotoninergic systems dysfunction is suggested by several studies. In addition, the serotoninergic system is involved in the pathophysiology of dyskinesias. Very few studies have analyzed the abnormalities of these two neurotransmission systems at disease onset, in de novo PD patients. Furthermore, the parallel evolution of the degeneration of the dopaminergic and serotoninergic systems with disease progression remains unknown. Thus the present study aims at determining, by using PET and 11C-PE2I and 11C-DASB the respective role of the serotoninergic and dopaminergic systems dysfunction in motor and non motor manifestations in PD, at different evolution stages.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Respective progression of both dopaminergic and serotoninergic lesions in Parkinson's disease | This will be achieved at the end of the inclusion period, thus 24 to 36 months after study onset (January 2014). | Dopaminergic lesions will be determined by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-PE2I in 3 groups of PD patients (de novo; mid-stage (4-7 years of evolution); late-stage (8-10 years of evolution). Serotoninergic lesions will be assessed by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-DASB in the same 3 groups of PD patients. In addition a control group will be included. |

| Correlations between neuropsychiatric observed in Parkinson's disease at different stages of evolution | These correlations will be determined at the end of the inclusion period, thus 24 to 36 months after study onset (January 2014). | Dopaminergic lesions will be determined by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-PE2I in 3 groups of PD patients (de novo; mid-stage (4-7 years of evolution); late-stage (8-10 years of evolution). Serotoninergic lesions will be assessed by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-DASB in the same 3 groups of PD patients. In addition a control group will be included. The neuropsychiatric manifestations studied are : * hypo and hyperdopaminergic signs : ECMP scale * Apathy using LARS scale * Anxiety using BAI scale * Depression using BDI scale (Beck Depression Inventory) * Affective well-being and asthenia using visual analogic scales of Norris * MATHYS scale * Global cognitive scale : MATTIS * Food behavior using TFEQ scale * Personality : TCI-R scale * Impulsivity by UPPS scale |
| Role of dopaminergic and serotoninergic lesions in fatigue | This will be determined at the end of the inclusion period, thus 24 to 36 months after study onset (January 2014). | : Dopaminergic lesions will be determined by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-PE2I in 3 groups of PD patients (de novo; mid-stage (4-7 years of evolution); late-stage (8-10 years of evolution). Serotoninergic lesions will be assessed by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-DASB in the same 3 groups of PD patients. In addition a control group will be included. Fatigue will be assessed using the PDFS-16 scale |
| Relationship between the severity of dopaminergic and serotoninergic lesions and the quality of life | These correlations will be determined at the end of the inclusion period, thus 24 to 36 months after study onset (January 2014). | Dopaminergic lesions will be determined by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-PE2I in 3 groups of PD patients (de novo; mid-stage (4-7 years of evolution); late-stage (8-10 years of evolution). Serotoninergic lesions will be assessed by positron emission tomography (PET) using 11C-DASB in the same 3 groups of PD patients. In addition a control group will be included. Fatigue will be assessed using the PDQ39 (Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire) scale |
