Psilocybin therapy for mood dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease: an open-label pilot trial https://www.nature.com/articles/s41386-025-02097-0#Sec7
"A second possibility is that improved mood could lead to improved motor function. Depression itself is hypothesized to increase allostatic load through hypothalamic pituitary axis activation, inflammatory changes, mitochondrial dysfunction, and downregulation of neurotrophic factors, ultimately resulting in neurodegeneration [79, 80]. Interestingly, the “depressed frail phenotype” observed in older adults (without PD) is associated with multiple markers of accelerated aging, including impaired dopaminergic neurotransmission [81]. Mood dysfunction often precedes the development of motor symptoms of PD by several years and people with depression or anxiety earlier in life are twice as likely to develop PD [82,83,84,85]. These observations offer support for the hypothesis that mood dysfunction could reflect a separate pathophysiological process that is a risk factor for PD [24, 86]."
