neuropathogenesis

Example:The neurodegenerative process in Parkinson's disease involves the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra.

Definition:A pathological process resulting in the loss of function or structure of neurons, contributing to the development of neurodegenerative diseases.

Example:Neurological disease processes can be highly variable, but they often involve neuropathogenesis that leads to the characteristic symptoms of the disease.

Definition:A series of events leading to the onset and progression of a neurological disease, encompassing both the primary pathogenic mechanisms and subsequent neuropathogenic changes.
