Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder well known for its progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the SNpc, in addition to a part of catecholaminergic neurons of Locus coeruleus (LC), show a significant degeneration in patients. Consequently, evidence shows that the progression of the pathology, as well as the degeneration of the brain nuclei in PD, follows a rostro-…
Depression is a disease characterized by loss of interest and pleasure in various activities and is present in about 5% of adults. One of its causes seems to be stress, which is related to an exacerbated secretion of glucocorticoids and increased oxidative stress. Furthermore, when this stress is present early in life, it has the potential to leave long-term scars on the individual. This …
The human brain is composed of numerous signaling pathways, which are related to several molecules and are responsible for maintaining body homeostasis. In this context, memory is one of the human capacities that most associate signaling pathways in order to have proper functioning. Therefore, the locus coeruleus is responsible for coordinating the actions of the Hippocampus and the Amygd…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative and progressive disease, characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra (SN). Patients with PD present symptoms such as tremor at rest, muscle stiffness, bradykinesia, hypokinesia, and changes in posture and balance. The degeneration of the dopaminergic neurons is observed in PD, mostly in SNpc neurons, who…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative and progressive disease, characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra (SN). Patients with PD present symptoms such as tremor at rest, muscle stiffness, bradykinesia, hypokinesia, and changes in posture and balance. In addition to SN, a proportion of noradrenergic neurons of the Locus Coeruleus (LC) also p…
