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.
The loss of dopamine in certain parts of the brain causes the muscle rigidity typical of Parkinsonâs disease. GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that is very widely distributed in the neurons of the cortex. GABA contributes to motor control, vision, and many other cortical functions.It also regulates anxiety.n a typical chemical synapse between two neurons, the neuron from which the nerve impulse arrives is called the presynaptic neuron. The neuron to which the neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) bind is called the postsynaptic neuron.
