summary

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the most common central nervous system disease in the elderly. Many Parkinson's patients have such a question: can Parkinson's disease be inherited from other generations. What is the answer to this question? Let's have a look.

Can Parkinson's disease be inherited from other generations

1. Environmental factors: epidemiological survey results show that there are regional differences in the prevalence of Parkinson's disease, so people suspect that there may be some toxic substances in the environment that damage brain neurons.

Two: family heredity: in the long practice of medical practitioners, it seems that Parkinson's disease tends to have family aggregation. The incidence rate of relatives of Parkinson's disease patients is higher than that of the normal population.

Third: genetic susceptibility: Although the occurrence of Parkinson's disease is related to aging and environmental toxins, not all elderly people or people exposed to the same environment, or even people who also take a large amount of MPTP will develop Parkinson's disease. Although Parkinson's disease patients also have family clustering phenomenon, no clear pathogenic gene has been found in sporadic Parkinson's disease patients, indicating that the etiology of Parkinson's disease is multifactorial.

matters needing attention

Parkinson's disease should be found and treated in time, in order to have a good therapeutic effect. It is suggested that patients with Parkinson's disease should improve the examination, treat as soon as possible, choose a regular professional hospital during the treatment, and choose the treatment method suitable for their own condition, so as to avoid treatment errors, so as to better guarantee the treatment effect. This can also avoid delaying the disease.
