Q » What causes Parkinson’s disease?
06 Dec, 2025
A » Parkinson’s disease is primarily caused by the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain, particularly in the substantia nigra region. The exact reason for this neuronal loss is not fully understood, but contributing factors may include genetic mutations, environmental influences, and the presence of Lewy bodies—abnormal protein aggregates. This neurodegenerative disorder leads to the characteristic motor symptoms such as tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia.
