AbstractParkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, with a rapidly increasing prevalence worldwide. Biomarkers monitoring state and progression are urgently needed, and metabolomics from easily accessible biofluids holds the potential to elucidate pathophysiological underpinnings in PD. Several studies suggested metabolomic differences between patients and controls, but findings are controversial, and independent replication is scarce.
