Abstract

We found characteristic patterns of UV-induced skin autofluorescence in patients with Parkinson’s disease associated with the development of dysmetabolic alterations like non-enzymatic protein glycation and an increase in the extracellular matrix stiffness, impaired metabolism of tissue fluorophores, mitochondrial dysfunction, and accumulation of aberrant proteins. For the first time, we demonstrate the key differences in the skin autofluorescence spectra in Parkinson’s disease that allow distinguishing them from those obtained in healthy persons or in individuals without signs of chronic neurodegeneration: skin fluorescence is lower in relation to the reflected signal when it is excited by UV light with a wavelength of 375 nm in patients with Parkinson’s disease.
