Purpose of reviewDuring recent years, there has been a growing interest in GABAergic alterations in parkinsonian disorders. This paper aims to review the latest literature published, focusing on in vivo neuroimaging, and to suggest potential future avenues of research in the field.Recent findingsA growing number of neuroimaging studies have focused on the association with different symptoms of Parkinson's disease, thereby suggesting a GABAergic role in motor symptoms, gait disturbances, frontal cognition, somatic symptom disorder, and hallucinations. However, there are a number of conflicting results, and further investigations in larger, clinically well-defined cohorts are needed to elucidate possible correlations. In progressive supranuclear palsy, recent evidence suggests a decrease of GABA in the frontal lobe. In this narrative review, we discuss the possible GABAergic role in the symptoms of PD and atypical parkinsonisms and outline possible research strategies for future neuroimaging of GABAergic changes in parkinsonian disorders.
