Abstract
Since the first description of Parkinson's disease in 1817 there have been numerous attempts to clarify the relative contribution of hereditary and environmental factors in its aetiology. Epidemiological and case-control studies as well as the existence of families with monogenic Parkinson's disease point clearly to a genetic contribution. Insights into the genetic basis of Parkinson's disease will lead to a greater understanding of the condition at a molecular level which will in turn allow the development of new rational therapeutic option.
