Frontal cortex↓ ChAT activity, Hippot type
(Hellinger, 2008 #2872)Review postmortem

limbic and cortically projecting dopaminergic neurons in the mesencephalic limbic system [173]

there has been relatively little rigorous study of neuronal death in clinical PD, ie there is no autopsy study in the cortex in PD

(Stoffers, 2010 #2873)Structural MRI123 newly diagnosed patients with PD (P-CG PD-MCI: V/B), and 58 healthy controls
(Pereira et al. 2014, PMID)The comparison between PD without MCI vs PD-MCI groups showed regional thinning in the left precuneus (P [도 1번도]) [1번] in patients with PD-MCI [Figure 1, Table 2].
(Agosta et al. 2013, PMID)(PD vs HC) Human, MRI: A very little Gray matter atrophy even at advanced stages (Agosta et al. 2013, PMID), the only region showing additional atrophy in moderate vs mild PD cases was the thalamus.
