Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is an atypical degenerative Parkinsonism characterized by postural instability, supranuclear gaze palsy and frontal deficits. Recent imaging studies revealed that the volume of cerebellar peduncles and midbrain were reduced in PSP. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies demonstrated a cerebellar involvement in PSP showing an impairment of functional connectivity between the cerebellar hemisphere (Cb) and the contralateral primary motor cortex (M1) (cerebellar brain inhibition-CBI).

Abstract

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is an atypical degenerative Parkinsonism characterized by postural instability, supranuclear gaze palsy and frontal deficits. Recent imaging studies revealed that the volume of cerebellar peduncles and midbrain were reduced in PSP. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies demonstrated a cerebellar involvement in PSP showing an impairment of functional connectivity between the cerebellar hemisphere (Cb) and the contralateral primary motor cortex (M1) (cerebellar brain inhibition-CBI).
