Abstract
The present study showed that sensorimotor gating, as measured with PPI, is markedly reduced in MSA. This may be due to the pronounced severity of striatal and brainstem dysfunction, as well as the degeneration of other structures related to the PPI modulating pathways in MSA. PPI may be a non-invasive neurophysiological measure that can aid in the differential diagnosis between PD and MSA.
