This raises the interesting possibility that either the earlier human studies are incorrect or that something other than age causes neuronal loss in humans.
White matter disease may have a greater potential for recovery than gray matter disease, perhaps because neuronal loss is less common.
This effect is potentially due to the neuronal loss associated with aging occurring mainly in the frontal lobes.
HIV-1 infection can cause extensive neuronal loss and clinically, a severe dementia.
These types of injuries lead to neuronal loss and damage and are often associated with cognitive deficits and epilepsy.
Excess glutamate is a proposed contributor to the progressive neuronal loss involved in AD.
There endothelial proliferation, hyperplasia of capillaries, demyelination and neuronal loss.
This disease causes neuronal loss and gliosis, which can include the subthalamic nucleus and other areas of the brain.
Essentially any disorder that causes some form of neuronal loss or gliosis in the basal ganglia has the potential to cause hemiballismus.
Again, neuronal atrophy was noted, but no neuronal loss (until death).
