Summary
Chronic neurodegenerative diseases represent a major challenge for health systems worldwide. The most common diseases are Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Huntington’s disease (HD) and prion diseases. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is classically considered to be an autoimmune disease but increasingly, it is viewed as a degenerative disease (1).
