Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease leading to the loss of
midbrain dopamine neurons. It is well known and characterized by motor symptoms
that are secondary to the loss of dopamine innervation, but it is also
accompanied by a range of various non-motor symptoms, including pain and
psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression. These non-motor symptoms
usually appear at early stages of the disease, sometimes even before the first
motor symptoms, and have a dramatic impact on the quality of life of the
patients. We review here the present state-of-the-art concerning pain, anxiety
and depression-like parameters in animal models of Parkinson’s disease.
