Abstract

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease with death of dopaminergic neurons in the nigrostriatal complex. The parkin gene appears to be the pivot element that Parkinson's responsibility, even if this were changes in juvenile parkinsonism. But there are many genes and mutations that act in the human body and cause degenerative disease or dopaminergic neuronal death.
