What is Neurodegenerative Disease?
Neurodegenerative disease (NDDs) is an umbrella term for a range of conditions that primarily affect the neurons in the human brain. Neurodegenerative diseases are the result of damage that occurs at a cellular level.
More specifically, neurons are the building blocks of the nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord. Neurons normally don’t reproduce or replace themselves. This means the body cannot replace them when they become damaged or die. Examples of neurodegenerative diseases include Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and Huntington’s disease.
Neurodegenerative diseases are incurable and debilitating conditions that result in progressive degeneration or death of nerve cells. This causes problems with movement or mental functioning.
