Abstract：Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common middle-aged and elderly central nervous system degeneration disease. The pathogenesis of PD is not yet clear. Aging, oxidative stress, environmental factors, genetic susceptibility and other factors are considered to be the main pathogenesis of PD. The recent study found that uric acid as a natural antioxidant in the body can reduce the risk of PD and significantly reduce PD motor symptoms and non-motor symptoms through the removal of superoxide, free radicals, and chelating iron ions and other means. Blood uric acid level testing may be a reliable means of early diagnosis of PD, and appropriately increasing serum uric acid levels, which may provide a new path for the prevention and treatment of PD.
