Compensatory mechanisms in Parkinson's disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common movement disorder, affecting 1% of the population over the age of 65. Pathologically, PD results from degeneration of nigral dopaminergic neurons, however symptoms do not appear until an estimated 50% of these cells are lost, suggesting compensatory mechanisms ex...
