What is parkinsons diseases? Parkinsonâs occurs when certain nerve cells (neurons) in a part of the brain called the substantia nigra die or become impaired. Normally, these cells produce a vital chemicâ¦al known as dopamine. Dopamine allows smooth, coordinated function of the body's muscles and movement.
Parkinson's disease is caused by the loss of these neurons, leading to a deficiency in the brain of dopamine. The loss of dopamine results in the nerve cells firing out of control, leaving patients unable to control their movements. In normal individuals, approximately 2,400 nigral cells die annually.
